Default Chewing Gum

Oh dear.
Today I read the nutritional info on a packet of sugarless chewing gum, and it said 69 carbs per 100g!!!

I know that Dr Atkins warned against chewing gum, but i *assumed* he was talking about the sugared stuff. I chew 1 packet of gum every day... another addiction, but also because i work face to face with people and i like to make sure my breath is always clean.

The packet of gum did not have a weight printed on it (that i could see!), and my kitchen scales are not sensitive enough to weigh something that light (i hope to get a new set in a couple of weeks), so i hope that someone here can advise me of the carb content of sugarless chewing gum.

I usually chew Wrigleys Extra.. the pellets; or Orbit Ice White sticks.

Thanks ....
