  • Artichoke carb count?

    I'm trying to find the carb count for large artichokes and cannot seem to find anything except for artichoke hearts. Even fitday has only the counts for artichoke hearts. I like to steam a large artichoke and eat the steamed underside of the leaves before eating the heart but am wondering about the carb count. I love this as a snack-it is a vegetable, I can dip the leaves in butter if I feel like it, and it takes a long time to eat. Although I thought it would be low carb I am now wondering. I am also interested in the fiber count so I can really see how much damage it is doing to my OWL.

    Artichoke comes up for me on Fitday PC. I'll check tonight and post the counts for you.

      Artichoke comes up online on fitday as well. Are you using the search function or going to the veggies section? The search function pulls up more stuff. Search for artichoke raw.

          Thanks a lot blue996 and quotidianlight. Don't know why I couldn't get anything but the artichoke hearts. Probably me. Oh dear--these have a lot more carbs than I imagined--8 net per choke. Will have to save them for a splurge. Glad I know now.
