[QUOTE="HSSS, post: 2217171, member: 480869"] To be fair I think what walking girl is doing is quoting % of calories from carbs - not % of carbs in the food by weight. However this is not how foods are classified as low carb or not as calories are not a factor. If you eat 1 kilo of bread v 1 kilo of broccoli then your meter will confirm there are a lot more carbs in the bread. Therefore broccoli is the lower carb item. By weight. We weigh food when making recipes not mess around with artificial constructs of calories. You don’t put 100 calories of butter into a recipe, you put 100 gram or whatever in there. [/QUOTE]
