[QUOTE="sugarless sue, post: 171853, member: 1210"] [b]Re: Viv's Diet[/b] As Atkins uses US values it gets confusing. In the UK the TOTAL carbs are the carbs with the fibre already subtracted. In the US their total carbs has the fibre in that amount, it is their NET carbs that is without the fibre. Therefore, if you subtracted the fibre again from UK TOTAL you would have underestimated the carbs in the product. As a UK site, talking about UK packaging, this is what we use. [/QUOTE]
