The site actually does not use 'net carbs', except:
- food database entries that people have added that are specifically net carb (sometimes mentioned in the name of the food)
- food database entries of some countries where it's standard to not include fiber etc in the carb count (EU for example)
- the premium version of MFP has a net carb option (but only in certain countries)4 -
Thanks for the help much appreciated on the explanation0
