Great resource by D. Shaw
Great resource for carbohydrate content of foods. Subgroups are sometimes a little difficult to distinguish from groups, but it is well worth the effort to figure it out.
Handiest little book around by A. Meza
I love this little book. Very well organized and easy to read. Dana has already figured the usable carbs for you. Just great.
Excellet Carb Counter by Book Lover
This is one of the best carb counters on the market. It is so easy to use, and lists every single food I have ever eaten, even the most popular restaurant foods. It is very well organized, making finding foods very quick. I just love the alphabetical listings instead of all those categories. I also found the foods to be listed in the serving size most commonly consumed. Plus there are additional serving size listings for items like flour and sugar that you would use in cooking/baking. I disagree with the bad reviews. For instance “potato” is right there, easy to find, in baked, boiled, etc. It lists the size of the potato in inches instead of saying 3 oz. Well how many of you have a scale with you to weigh your potato when you eat out? I would rather see the size, like 3 inch long by 2 inch round. Awesome book!
Not what I thought by D. Blackburn
Although this is a handy book, it’s not as helpful as I would have liked. It’s a little hard to find items. I t would be better if items were grouped together a little differently. But I have used it a couple of times. If I could’ve looked through it before, I probably wouldn’t have bought it.
