Some are 1 cup.


If I remember right, I got the total carb info off the label for the Eden black soy beans & off the internet for regular. So the label wasn't deceptive, but I think the hype is. There's very little difference, even after subtracting fiber, between the regular & the black.

I don't think carb counts are as accurate as we would like - I've seen a lot of differences. When there is a difference, I choose the higher count, just to be safe.
