Which are mostly fibre

You can’t eat a tablespoon of black pepper.
We need to be realistic and practical.

Very true.

I’m just joking really.

That being said, I do use alot of pepper.

This source says it is 2 carbs per tsp. 40% fiber, 60% starch

I think Pepper should count as a ā€œhidden carbā€. for Pepper junkies like me at least.

Thankyou so much. I only started eating these as I’m such a veggie head and thought they were really low carb?? What veg do you eat, what’s best? I eat cauli, broccoli, zucchini, cucumbers mostly.

True, but a TBSP of either of those is a LOT!
