It says that three pieces, or one ounce, has 1 carb, and 1 gram of fiber. That's a net of zero. I snack on them from time to time. Are you subtracting the fiber from the total count to arrive at your net carbs? That's crucial, as fiber doesn't count toward the total of 20. Ed, The Atkins book says net carbs for a whole artichoke is 6.9. I'm just wondering if it's ok to count that toward my 10 veggie carbs - I could eat an artichoke every day, but concerned I wouldn't be getting many other veggies.
