Never fill your own boots with peanut butter. Filling someone elses boots can be fun though .I've got big boots.. size 13!

And more on-topic : it seems I accidentally bought a relatively low carb peanut butter. It happens to be Lidl's and cheap, but they probably sell a different peanut butter in the UK, as I can't imagine yours is named Helaes Pindakaas as well.
So say if you were to have a pb and cucumber sandwich (I don't know WHY I want to as I've never even had it before so don't know if I like it! lol) but anyways you would include the bread, pb and cucumber as the serving of pb and cucumber I'd be having comes in at about 3g? Sorry to be a pain but with my mental health the way it is with food etc I want to be certain xxI think it amounts to about 1g per teaspoon, so if you were having the equivalent of 5 teaspoons then yes i'd also factor this into my calculation, easy if you can round it up with the bread but check the label as some jars contain sugar and some don't
Have you actually put this to the test and proved it? Just curious as I don't find this to be the case at all, when I get a fresh loaf I weigh it all to know how long its going to last me so I know when to add it to the shopping list and 9 times out of 10 the bread weighs the same 5 days later than it did the day I bought it xxOf course you can weigh it and look on the package, but a two-day old bread has lost some of it's water and weight, but still has the same amount of carbs

The serving of cucumber would have the same amount of carbs as the pb though? so I would need to include it too, yes I have a half unit pen as it was established that a full unit was too much for correction, then too much for food sometimes too lol xHi Kaylz - yes definitely include the PB and bread - the cucumber has negligible carbs so ignore this, I count everything that passes my lips, I also only used sliced bread to ensure I know exactly how many carbs per slice, I rarely use fresh bread. At the moment I use Livilife bread which is a protein bread and has 3.7g of carbs per slice. Do you use a half unit pen ?

Ah, you're probably a lot better than I am with closing up the bag after getting a slice of bread!the bread weighs the same 5 days later than it did the day I bought it
I'm not keen on measuring by teaspoons/tablespoons (or cups) etc all my spoons are different. I believe a standard UK tablespoon is 15ml , Australian tablespoon = 20ml and many Victorian tablespoons are typically 25ml which a difference of 60% on UK.I've got big boots.. size 13!
I like my veg, today I had ham and cucumber and that was 70g cucumber which is just over 1g carb and I could have had more on the sandwich so yeah I need to include it xYou would have to eat half a cucumber for 1g of carb, which I doubt you would do in a sandwich so just focus on the bread and PB for counting the carbs - have you tried doing Bertie ? It's a good course to get your head round carbs: https://www.bertieonline.org.uk/
