    Need advice

    I noticede on fit Day the carb content in a burger king croissant with egg bacon ,cheese is 25g carbs
    and i looked on the Burger King nutrition web site and this is what they have

    Carb 6
    Carb(%DV) 2
    Fibre 1
    Fibre(%(DV) 4
    Sugars 5


    now i know we are not supposed to have this but i just happened to notice this

    am i supposed to add all that up as the Carb content
    becuase then you would get 13g
    which counteracts what fit day has.

    I find it hard to believe that a croissant even all by itself has only 6 carbs!

              I'll just bet BK claims not responsible for typo errors on website.

              Here's other source reports for same croissant:

                  MOG is correct. The BK website says it's a total of 26 carbs.
