Big difference in carbs for dry and tinned lentils.
I was browsing the supermarket shelves the other day and noticed that there was a huge difference in carbohydrates between canned and dry lentils. Napolina lentils state 10g/100g drained weight, with fibre at 7.8g.
Consulting my "Calorie, Carb and Fat Bible", it appears that there is a big difference between the two. Although drained, the weight is still mostly water, I suppose. The drained tin gives 265g of lentils, 26g of carbs and about 19g of fibre, to give nett carbs of 6g. Too good to be true?
