Can anyone help please? Collins Gem carb counter says they contain 0.7 carb per biscuit - on the back of the Jacob's packet it says 5.4, which reading is more trustworthy?

Thanks in anticipation of experimenting with a cracker ( or not as the case may be )

Afraid its the 2nd one, carbs in 1 cracker 5.3/4. So only have 3 and have butter and cheese on it.

I have found that you can spread Marmite on a slice of cheese and forget the cracker altogether. You do get some funny looks though.
