Baja Fresh has two new meals on the menu. Chicken Picado and Steak Picado. The nutritional info lists it as having 17 grams of carbs. I'm assuming that includes the optional tortillas. I don't see anything else there that would explain such a high carb count...

For those of you that don't have Baja Fresh, it's probably the best Mexican fast food, and is supposedly going nation-wide soon...

I'm glad you pointed this out. I haven't eaten Mexican food in awhile but there are several items on the menu that are lc.

I just received this reply from Baja Fresh:
