Just wanted to toss a though out there. "Net Carbs" is not currently regulated, and may not be accurate. There have been studies of foods that claimed to have reduced carbs, but when tested, some actually had more carbs than the original. Also, if you compare labels, you will often find that reduced carbs leads to an increase in saturated fat. Gotta be careful when dealing with marketers. I believe that "net carbs" claims will be regulated starting in 2005 (when they have to list Trans fats as well). Until then, you have to use your own judgement about what is good or bad.
