Need clarification on hidden carbs

I love this forum and have learned so much in just one short day!

I am really still not clear on how to get an accurate carb count on some products.

Example:

Jimmy Dean Hickory Sausage

Label = Calories 240, Fat 21, Protein 9, Carbs 0

My calculations = 3.75 Carbs

Hidden carbs calculator= 3.19 Carbs

On the other hand...

Rudy Farm Country Sausage

Label = Calories 210, Fat 21, Protein 9, Carbs 1

My calculations = (3.75) Carbs

Hidden carbs calculator = (5.60) Carbs

How do you handle these situations?

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Also, I am so confused about Splenda. The package says 0 Calories and less than 1 Carb. Most of the products I have purchased containing Splenda show 0 Carbs on the label?
