I use the USDA SR20 for nutrition information. We don't net out any
fiber less than 5 grams per serving. We've had several Diabetes
educators and that seems to be the way they do it. The only diet that
I'm aware of that nets out less than 5 grams of carbs (and sugar
alcohols at 100%) is Atkins.

We'll stick to homemade soups with better nutritional values.
