Default A new question to add to this thread.

On the USDA database, under carbohydrates they are listed as "Carbohydrate, by difference".

Does this mean they compute it by subtracting the fat calories and the protein calories and what is left is carbohydrate calories divided by 4 for the amount of carbs?

Or does it mean they have already subtracted the fiber count?

Or does it mean neither one of these and it is just the total carbohydrate count?
