I am on keto diet and counting carbs

This program says 3 carbs for 6 oz salmon and 4 carbs for 6 oz roast beef. I thought there was no carbs in meat or fish???

    It sounds like you have chosen some bad database entries. Or it's possible those are for salmon and roast beef with marinades that contain carbohydrates.

    You just picked a crappy entry. Tag those kind of entries with "USDA"

    You have to be selective with database entries...most are user entered and as mentioned, that particular user may have been using a marinade or something...or they just didn't know what they were doing.

    Also if you buy frozen it may have carbs or flavoring added. If its just raw meat with no additives then you are correct on zero carbs
