OK, so I'm sitting here reading posts at lunch time and decide to dig
into my bag of tricks for a luncheon entree'.  I come across a can of
sardines in mustard sauce, read the nutrition facts and discover they
claim 0 grams carb and 2 grams fiber!!!  So does this mean I get a
carb CREDIT.... like I can eat 10 cans get a 20 carb credit and than
eat  - say -  a doughnut for "free"???

Does anyone have any idea how many of these carb credit foods are out
there???  This could add a whole new dimension to low carbing!!!  I
wonder if I could some how "bank" my credits on Fitday and have them
credited to my totals???  Do you think that if I have too high a
credit balance I would implode???

PS, to all who feel the need to make snide remarks....no I am not a
fat moron, yes I do have an idea how diets work and yes I do know
doughnuts are not a low carb food.....this was merely intended to be
an amusing observation of a nutritional facts listing.

LOL! I wish.

Here's a link to some gum that has negative calories listed. If I
chewed this all day... ;)

Makes as much sense as 'Net-Carbs'.
