Heaps less then the 9g if you take into account the fiber. They probably dont realise that.

Yeah but didn't you mention 17g Honey?

In Australia the fiber is already subtracted from the carbohydrates, so the carbohydrates stated are net carbs.

I didnt know that. Interesting.

The 100g of fiber 17g of honey was just a guide as thats what nutritional facts use as a standard measurement. 2.3g on their site so that would be a tiny bit of a teaspoon.

Since when?

http://lowcarbcentral.com.au/low-carb/low-carb-beginners-guide.html. We have different labelling to the US. It tricked me too until I read it.

For Australian products, the "total carbs" is the "net carbs" - dietary fibre is listed separately.

I have spent the last half hour looking and sites and forums have it at 50/50. Noone seems to be able to post an official government backed explanation.

http://www.comlaw.gov.au/Details/F2013C00098. Government legal guidelines for nutrition labels.

"carbohydrate means –

(a) ‘carbohydrate by difference’, calculated by subtracting from 100, the average quantity expressed as a percentage of water, protein, fat, dietary fibre, ash, alcohol, and if quantified or added to the food, any other unavailable carbohydrate and the substances listed in column 1 of Table 2 to subclause 2(2); or

(b) ‘available carbohydrate’, calculated by summing the average quantity of total available sugars and starch, and if quantified or added to the food, any available oligosaccharides, glycogen and maltodextrins."

Although whether labels listed carbs are net or not is irrelevant if you only eat Vege, meat n eggs.

Still interesting topic

 

[Poetic Justice]

Very interesting.. still hard to keep up with everything! Do i do this, or do that.. you'd think that at some point soon, the absolute 100% perfect "diet" would come to light, wouldn't it?

But im on no more than 30g carb and it makes a difference for me.

Yes but if your getting your carbs from fresh foods that are unlabelled then your obviously using a carb counting tool that would state carbs n fir re content?

Could be a really good event for those based in Sydney.

Good find!

The Thrive food store looks good too, similar to Primal Pantry & Paleo Cafe.

More of these type eateries the better.

Tonight with my pork belly I had kale. I drizzled macadamia oil over the kale and sprinkled chili flakes and himalayan salt over it and put it in the roasting pan until crisp.
Divine.

Does anyone have any suggestions what to accompany pork belly to replace apple sauce?

This is interesting, Grill'd the hamburger chain is about to introduce a low carb bun that is wheat/gluten free made from almond meal, eggs, coconut cream and honey.

Had one of these bad boys tonight with the chicken breast. Pretty, pretty, pretty good.

 

[King Elvis]

Nice, think I'm having tomorrow.

Cream with protein shakes is a good thing, but I'm almost out of BodyScience (meant to be thermogenic) stuff I've got - suggestions on what to go for next; or stay the same?

Bulk Nutrients whey

Bulk Nutrients whey

Cookies and cream and the coffee flavours are nice as.

 

[King Elvis]

Nice, I get plenty from them, what about this gear;

Description says lots of carbs, nutrition tab says barely any...

 

[raskolnikov]

I use almond milk in my protein shakes. At the moment I am using Balance Ultra Ripped low carbs.

 

[King Elvis]

I've always used water, added cream this week - me rikey.

I posted this ages ago, then didn't get any, now got so more - they've changed the composition, still ~5g of sugar per 100g, but holy s**t, it's actually delicious!

I hear they are $15, is this true?

think it was 12.50 maybe. You can have whtever burger you want its just another 1.50 for the low carb bun.

The buns are pretty slim. More like pikelets really.
