Thiswhole keto/low carb thing going on.. many individuals are seeing good results omitting rice/noodles/breads from their diets and while I’m happy for them, I saw that some are still confused abt “low carb” and “no carb”. 😅
“Low carb“ simply means having lower carb content in comparison with .. well another ingredient of the same weight.
For example, cauliflower (same weight) is lower carb compared to broccoli (same weight).
It is NOT no carbs.
Few, if any, food is NO CARB. Water and air has no carb, but unless u can survive on both, anything u consume has carbs.
Even oils, lard (saw someone selling pork rinds & labeling it as “no carbs” urghhh 🤦🏼♀️) have carbs.

"Food Labels and Carbs
For clarity, to be listed as “zero carbs” on a nutrition label, the food needs to contain less than 1 gram of total carbohydrates per serving.
Any food other than oil (which are 100% fat) will contain trace carbs. Even animal products have small amounts of carbohydrates.
For this reason, the no-carb foods list means the food has less than one carb per serving.
It’s also worth noting that when you’re reading a food label, there are four aspects of the food that can fall under carbohydrates: total carbohydrates, dietary fiber, total sugars, and added sugars."
