I mentioned this in my original post in the food forum but I'd like to post it here too since this ones seems to get so much more traffic.
I've found a brand of tortilla/wrap that I truly love! Taste and texture is great and it's only 70 calories! But I'm confused about the carb and fiber count, it doesn't seem to make sense to me.
Carb count is listed at 5 grams and then right below the fiber is listed as 12 grams. I thought fiber is a carb, so it's impossible that fiber would be higher than the total carb.....am I misinformed about something?
Wow, that stumps me too. That would make the net carbs less than zero.
Carbs - fiber = net carbs. Have you checked the company's website? Im not sure how that works out. Hope it's not a typo , , , that would make me wonder about everything I ate.

I'm guessing they did net carbs, which would mean the total carbs are 17.
What brand is it? I love to learn about new food items from others in the forum. Laughing cow cheese was such a great find!

They are "Ole Mexican Foods" brand and I found them right at my local Shop Rite grocery store. I went to their site and found out their corporate headquarters is in Georgia and there are distribution centers all over the U.S.....but I don't know if it's actually manufactured here.
