    I would have to ask you to define "carb free" because I'm guessing it's not the scientific definition.

    Too much fruit to be carb free or even low carb.

    You are grain free though.

    Fruit has carbs and really, you don't WANT to be carb free. The body needs carbs. Now limiting carbs by limiting grains, is a different topic entirely.

    Anything with sugar has carbs in it. Therefor, chocolate with sugar added, fruit, some yogurts, and peanut butter have carbs. So no, this is not carb free.

    Carb free diets are typically sugar free diets. 1 tsp of sugar has 4.2 g of carbs in it.

    27 g of carbohydrates in a medium banana
    1 to 2 g of carbohydrates in a serving of turkey lunch meat
    9 g of carbohydrates in a 4 oz. avocado
    1 g of carbohydrates per string in most string cheeses
    1 to 2 g of carbohydrates in a serving of turkey lunch meat,
    18 g of carbohydrates in a medium naval orange,
    20 g of carbohydrates in a medium apple,
    8 g of carbohydrates in 2 tablespoons of Jif peanut butter,
    2 g of carbohydrates in a serving of mushrooms,
    7 g of carbohydrates in a serving of sugar snap peas,
    12 g of carbohydrates in a cup of watermelon,
    11 g of carbohydrates in a cup of strawberries,
    and about 25 g of carbohydrates in a serving of dark chocolate depending on brand.

    for a grand total of 164 g of carbohydrates.
