I did the math for a medium apple using http://www.nutritiondata.com.

I also am reporting total carbs, not net. I gave up on the net thing as
too damned complicated for me to deal with regularly.

I agree the whole thing is rather a lot of carb at one dose, especially
if there were any significant carbs in the meal that preceded it.
Depends on what else one is eating.

But it's darned good.
