Default FDA to decide what's really a low-carb food (CNN)

Article on CNN:

Seems that different companies use different methods to count carbs.
This should establish a standard.

Hi Guy,

Thanks for sharing this. I'm glad that the FDA has concluded that sugar
alcohols are, indeed, carbs. I know they are for me, as a diabetic. I
think a lot of people are being mislead by the current practices. I'm
happy to hear that things are going to change.
