hiya kerryanne, i'm in the UK and i am in the same boat as you..
look at the packet, and it'll say something like:
carbs 65g (o which sugar 0g, polyols 65g)
as far as I understand from the atkins book, polyols are not counted as carbs and therefore you're ok to count no sugar mints and no sugar polos as zero carbs..
as to how good these are for you is a different matter, but i've found they havent slowed my weight loss down, not to say they wont in the future tho..
i work in close contact with people, and the last thing i want is to have dragon breath, so they help me a lot..
hope this helps, and PLEASE GUYS, if i'm wrong correct me..
Tony
