I don't mean to ask a dumb question but what is the difference between baby squash zucchini (0.496) and summer squash zucchini (7.07). According to fit day there is a big carb difference but I have no clue what the difference is. Help....I had squash for dinner but I don't know which of the two it is now.

Thanks in advance.

the listing for the baby zuccini squash is for 1 baby squash only like 3.3 cals

I think if you had just zuccini that is regular, frozen or fresh they are about 5-6 inches long. I would use the fitday summer squash zuccini that is 3.54 carbs and 1.26 fiber per half cup or 7.07 carbs and 2.52 fiber per whole cup so thats only 2.28 ECC per 1/2 cup and 4.56 per whole cup ECC not bad

Thanks Becca. I feel so silly for not knowing the difference!

I agree with Rebecca. Most likely you had the regular zucchini. I love that stuff.

baby zuccini squash is just that - baby squash. It is picked when it is ~ 3 inches long. Now most zuccini in stores is ~ 6 - 9 inches long. So that is where the big difference comes in.

You don't see the babies in the store very often - it's more of a gourmet thing.

Hey,

Summer squash is the yellow squash that's usually in mixed veggies...zuchini is the green outsides.

I feel like such a dork. The squash family is new to me LOL. I used to NEVER eat veggies and with this WOE I have tried/eaten more veggies than ever.
