Acknowledgement of EU/US difference in Carbs counting

3 votes

There is a lot of initiatives on total carb net carb counters and it is an important topic of discussion. As a European I’m very happy that Yazio does not mix fiber with carbs, but many times the items of ”verified nutrition facts” are from the states, even though I have recorded my own country!

This is again te famous ”Chia seeds” example; the app proposes to me 42,0g Chia seeds ”verified” even though according to EU food labelling Chia seeds has 0,2g of carbs! There is even my countrys ”official food ministry” products showing these real European facts, so I would prefere that these items are the ones marked as ”verified” on my geocraphical area!!
