Mission Zero tortillas w/7g of carbs and fiber w/7g. Fiber cancels out the carbs. Why is this total of 0 carbs not listed in the meal macros?

    You're American?
    Regular carb count in US nutritional labels includes fiber, unlike in for example Europe.
    Net carbs (subtracting fiber from carb count) is a premium option on MFP (app only, and only in the US and Canada).

    I don't know the food you mention, so I have no idea what the correct numbers are.

    I was looking to see why net carbs are only available on the app and not the website and came across your question. On the web site it does not show net carbs, only total carbs and then fiber in a separate column. On the app it will show 0 net carbs for Mission Zero tortillas.
