  • Spinach vs Romaine

    Why is romaine a "salad" green and raw spinach an "other vegetable? According to Fitday, 10 ounces of each has a net of 2 carbs.
    Just wondering.

    For some reason and i cant remember why, i'm pretty sure that spinach was moved to the salad veggie list, i'm sure someone can confirm that for you though.

          I guess you can't cos he's dead so we cant ask.

          I count it as a salad veggie, its up to you what you do, i'm not going to tell you what to do!!

          This is not 2002 book rules but FYI, Dr A recommended we eat 20 net carbs during induction, he changed this to the 3 cups veggies because he thought people would stick to it better and not go over the 20 carbs doing it this way, this is why its not great when you see people only eating lettuce at 1-2 carbs a cup. so with this note, it really doesnt matter which one you choose it as, but personally, its a salad veggie for me.
