Well seeing as how I use insulin, I have to get the correct carb count.
That's why I wanted an actual cite. What people were told is of no matter
to me.

That being said, I do follow the Exchange Plan and on that plan you do not
count the low carb vegetables unless you are eating 3 or more servings per
meal. Then you have to count it as a carb. Carb being 15g. That's minus
the fiber.
