Question Trader Joes half n' half

Funny you should mention Trader Joes. I've been on low carbs for a very long time... at least two whole days, and one of the first things I did was go to T.J's and purchase everything I possibly could that was low carbs.

One of the things I got was their half n' half. And of course, fro Trader Joe's, that means it comes from cows that were never given hormones, which is very cool.

After reading this thread, I looked at the label more closely. The 0g of carbs is for only 2 tablespoons (30 ml).

Mixed with the wonderful protien powder I got from T.J.'s, I drink about a cup of half n' half and a cup of water. I'm not sure when it is that I will ever only drink 2 tablespoons.

On the bottom of the nutrition facts it says "calories per gram: Fat 9, Carbs 4, protein 4 ". What does that mean? Does that mean there are 4 carbs per gram? So, if there are about 229 grams per cup, that means I am drinking how many carbs?
