Label Reading Advice Needed
| Tue, 10-21-2003 - 9:58am |
I am a little confused about reading labels.
Here is an example:
Regular Skippy creamy peanut butter: Per 2 T serving - 190 cals, Total Carbs 7g, Fiber 2g, Sugars 3g.
Natural creamy peanut butter: Per 2 T serving - 190 cals, Total Carbs 7g, Fiber 3g, Sugars 1g.
Here are my questions:
What is the formula for 'net effective carbs'? Is it Total Carbs less fiber less sugar??
Is the Skippy really that much worse than the natural peanut butter?
Any clarification here would be appreciated. Thanks!!
