Also there are things like sugar alchols (sp?) that also can be subtracted in carb counts.. This in my experience, has mostly happened when buying sugar free candy LOL.. But not everyone uses Splenda in sugar free items, and some have funny names.. I would suggest if you dont already, to pick up one of the LC books like Dr Atkins books...(I cant remember the name of mine, but its red, and usually white in the book store.. and its basically a all-about LC Diet book)
