Yup it is, but like all spices you must keep track of the carbs. Many people forget that spices do have carbs, though not a huge amount.


here is the carb count that i found for curry powder:

I disagree with Jen on this and no I dont believe you have to count carbs in spices ..because it says right in the book clearly that you may use them for induction and no place does it say to count them! ..the amt of carbs in a spoon of curry per dish is not worth counting ...yes curry is legal as long as it has no fillers!!

love you Jen but counting spice carbs is a little obsessive inmho!!! OOOXXX

that count is variable anyway there are a million differing curry spice mixes so I would not say all curries have 3.2 carbs per tablespoon!
