Default New Keto Bar on on Amazon UK

There is a new Keto Bar advertised on Amazon, UK "Maria Lucie Bakes."
For some reason I cannot copy/paste a screenshot

The nutrition label says carbs are around 5 gm and fiber around 28 gm if I remember correctly.

This simply does not compute!

Has anyone else seen these?

I believe UK and US rules for reporting carbs and fiber are different. So that probably means 5 grams of "digestible" carbohydrate.

Thanks all.
Yes it seems the UK and N America have different rules for nutrition labels.
I will be interested to see what the nutrition labels will look like if she decides to market on Amazon - US & Canada.

Maria Lucie Bakes says her keto bars will be available in N America next year.
Nutrition labels say 5 gm carb, 3 gm fiber

How is that possible to have 28 gm fiber in the UK and 3 gm in the US without making a different bar?
