CARB COUNTS ON SPICES, 1 TBSP
USDA Nutrient Values
A carbohydrate free or low-carb diet involves restricting your intake of carbohydrates, initially to less than 20g per day. The big baddies are “refined" carbohydrates such as white bread, rice and flour. To make up for the carbohydrate deficit, foods high in protein and fat are used as replacements.
Please keep in mind that these counts are based on 1tbsp of spice, which in most cases is far more than would actually be used in most recipes.
Carbohydrate by difference means that they subtract the water, ash, fat and protein--and the rest is legally considered carbs.
