The main reason is that not every one is on the keto diet. So advice about what carbs to eat is important because they are considered an important food group. The forum is an open place for people to seek advice.

The forum is an open place for people to seek advice.I'm a bit lost with the comments about the amount - a percentage of 80 means that if you eat 100 gm, 80 gm is carb, if you eat 50 gm, 40 gm is carb, and for 25 gm, 20 is carbs - it is a percentage.....
Eating brown rice mans that the impact is just a tiny bit less - personally I'd rather eat something with a bit of colour and flavour than any sort of rice.
How about eating a salad with coleslaw walnuts radishes celery tomato beetroot, finely sliced onion, a bag of salad, sweet pepper - rather than a spoonful of rice?
I know which I'd opt for. Don't forget the EV olive oil and a nice wine vinegar and some herbs as dressing.

Only deduct in the US. In Europe/UK the fibre is already deducted from the carb count.The way I understand it is that 1cup of cooked brown rice has 15% carbs.
You're right. The only difference is that in 1 cup of brown rice, you get 3.5 gm of fiber (which you can also deduct from the total amount of carbs). Compared to other types of rice, brown rice still is, the "lesser evil."
Carbs are considered an important food group only by some who have been told, and told and told again that it is - but not everyone is so trusting.The main reason is that not every one is on the keto diet.

But what is 15 percent of a cup? We don't use cups as measurement, not as a rule, here in the UK - Though cooked rice is about one third carbs not 15 percent - and actually a cup full appears to have 45 gm of carbs - more than my total daily consumption if I am to keep to normal numbers.The way I understand it is that 1cup of cooked brown rice has 15% carbs.

I certainly would not eat brown rice for its fibre content, as it is so minimal. It can't be deducted from the carb content - it isn't included in the total carb count.
I think the point being made, regardless of what measurement units you use, is that 15% is fairly meaningless unless you know 15% of what. So if your cup has 10 grams of rice 1.5 grams is carbs. If your cup has 100 grams of rice then there are 15 grams of carbs. It makes a lot of difference the amounts involved with the %I use cups as measurement, so that's how I understand it.
Goodness! I wasn't feeling at all hungry, but now I am. Coleslaw sounds a good idea. Trouble is, it would take me forever to get through even a small whole cabbage.How about eating a salad with coleslaw walnuts radishes celery tomato beetroot, finely sliced onion, a bag of salad, sweet pepper - rather than a spoonful of rice?

Oh I buy it ready made - far too much faffing about to make it at home, and as you point out, one cabbage would make a bucket load.Goodness! I wasn't feeling at all hungry, but now I am. Coleslaw sounds a good idea. Trouble is, it would take me forever to get through even a small whole cabbage.
Do you buy it in a jar or from the deli counter?Oh I buy it ready made - far too much faffing about to make it at home, and as you point out, one cabbage would make a bucket load.
Just be sure not to get the low fat option.
Most of the supermarkets I go to have it in clear plastic tubs in a chiller cabinet close to the cooked meat/bacon and not far from the salad stuff.Do you buy it in a jar or from the deli counter?
