Robin, you are correct. The way it was labelled, everyone thought they were about 2 g net carb per serving. It was really misleading. Even the customer service reps were trying to tell people that the extreme low carb counts were correct, but all you have to do is work backwards from the total calorie count. Subtract the fat and protein calories, and there's your starch calorie count. It's more like 16 g, not 1 or 2. The fiber was already subtracted, as it is on a lot of labels outside North America.

Still way better than a lot of beans. It's too bad Eden is the only brand I see around, and they're pretty pricey. I'd use them more often if they were as cheap as regular canned beans.
