Default What's up with these nuts

Hello all,

I was recently at the grocery store and was looking at the nutritional info on several bags of nuts.

Some of them listed 3 g of carbs and 3 g of fiber, (0 net carbs?) some had 4 g of carbs and 3 g of fiber, and one even listed the counts as 3 g total carbs and 4 g of fiber, (minus 1 net carbs?).

Is this possible or are the rules for rounding on food labels so loose that the manufacturers can round one number up or one number down?
