    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)
