Government regulation allows food manufacturers to round down the carbs to the lowest whole number. That is, if the cream has 0.9g per tbs, they are allowd to say "0". Take a llok at the serving sze. It may be that the pint says Tspoon and the quart says Tbl spoon. It the Tea spoon has less then a whole gram of carb they'll say "0"... The safe assumption (at least on induction) is that whatever the stated number of gram is, add one gram to your daily total..
