[QUOTE="Alexandra100, post: 2164312, member: 429870"] OMG!!! I feel like one of those poor geese being stuffed to make foie gras. I see that for peppermint teabags, Twinings claims 0g carbs per 100ml, whereas Liptons say theirs have 0.5g per 100ml. Tesco count 200mls as a serving, and admit to 1.6g for 200ml. It would be more helpful if firms revealed the carbs in each teabag, as obviously adding extra mls of water will make no difference. Taylors of Harrogate offer promising organic teabags, but infuriatingly only reveal fat content, not carbs. Can there be anyone in the world who cares abut the fat content of their teabags (0.03mls fat per 100mls, just in case you do!)? Teapigs claim 0 sugar and a trace of carbs in 100mls. Asda claims 0 sugar and 0 carbs in 100mls. Interestingly, Sainsburys claim <0.5gc for both 100 and 200mls. Which goes to show how inexact these measurements are. [/QUOTE]
