Hi Pebbs,
Some labeling laws allow rounding, if the carb count per tablespoon is 0.5, they can say 0g!
There are a few things you can do to help discover these false claims. Check the USDA nutritional database, and it will give you the exact count. We have it online, check under "Tools" from the menu above. We also have the hidden carbs calculator, which gives more details on the label totals.
Wa'il
