Hidden Carb Calculator
Not sure if this has been posted before.
But I found a hidden carb calculator that works out if there are any hidden carbs in products that are not declared on the nutrition panel. http://www.lowcarb.ca/low-carb-tools/hidden_carbs.html It works by taking total calories, subtracting calories from fat, protein and carbohydrates. if there are any calories left over then there are hidden carbs. There is also an option to select if the panel has already subtracted fibre or not. You can enter the amount of fibre that has been subtracted. Is this a good tool?

Re: Hidden Carb Calculator
It should be for items that contain sugar alcohols that don't list them on the panel.
