Splenda also is technically ZERO, but actually has about a half gram of carb or so. THANKS for sharing! That’s true, Jess, and a good reminder to count the carbs in products using maltodextrin.

I love the TrueLime packets, but they aren't quite zero carbs, since (unless the formula changed recently) its carrier includes lactose and maltodextrin, which are both sugars. The box I have right here at my desk is labeled "<1g" carb, which, by FDA regulation, can be anything between 0.5g and 1g.<br/><br/>That's not a huge number, and is a very small carb price to pay for the flavor boost, but it can add up if you're not careful. I'm a limeade addict, and got the strength I wanted with five packets of TrueLime per tall glass, which is at least 2.5g. A couple of those a day can cause some significant carb creep. Hi Jimmy.
