Hi,

Can anyone tell me why a cup of double dragon green tea comes up with only 3 calories but 35 grams of carbs?

This is surely a mistake? Or am I suffering from low carb induced idiocy?

Thanks,

    I noticed the same thing! I was shocked because I'm pretty sure green tea even when brewed strong isn't going to have a gram of anything in it. Its a mistake don't worry about.

    People in general aren't that bright, and reading and copying nutritional information is beyond the layperson.

    I don't know the correct answer, I don't know the product.

    I can tell you 1g carb is 4kcal, so for the carbs to be 35g, calories would have to be 140 minimum.
