Need help Calculating Carbs
I bought this bag of seafood combination. It has octopus, cuttlefish, squid, shrimp, mussels (all raw) and cooked clams.
According to the Nutritional Information (per 100g (approx 4 ozs) serving)
calories 50
protein 11g
fat 0.8g
carbs 0g
I know that the carbs on this is wrong because someone mentioned on the Atkins board that shrimp, mussels, clams and perhaps squid I can't remember have carbs. So how many carbs should I add per 100g (4ozs)?
I tried to use the carb counter but I'm not sure how to interprete the results. According to the carb counter:
Calculated Information:
Carbohydrates factor 3.91465
Fat factor 9.01429
Protein factor 4.26216
Actual Carb count -1.05 g
Difference by weight -1.05 g
What does this mean? zero carbs or 3.91465 carbs?
Elsewhere on this site:
seafood - 4 oz cooked : clams - 5.8; crabmeat (natural) - 0 to 1.0; crabmeat (imitation "surimi") - 12.0 to 15.0; lobster - 1.5; mussels - 8.4; oysters - 8.0; scallops - 2.5; shrimp - 1.0
Please help.
Peace
