Stevia

Hello.  Anyone notice that the app counts Stevia as 1 carb per teaspoon but the nutritional value says 0 carbs per serving? Which is correct? Thanks!

    Powdered stevia has carbs in the bulking agent so it’s counted as 1 net carb.

    Liquid stevia has no bulking agent and is counted as 0. 

    Food packaging laws allow products to round down to zero if the serving size has 0.4 carbs. 

    Hope that helps.
