A lot of Asian foods add a trace of sugar. Chinese soups can be
thickened with corn starch, which will have carbs. Maybe you should
ask the server?

I had my favorite Vietnamese bowl of Beef noodle soup. I never get the
noodles. No noodles please.So I get the slices of beef, tripe and a few slices of onions. Eat a few
raw bean sprouts and the basil that comes with it.Tried to do a carb count but it is not as easy as it had seemed at first.
Not knowing if they put anything like sugar and the like in the broth. Some
recipes do, some don't.The beef and tripe are no brainers. The traces of veggies, no big deal to
count up. The broth one wonders - can it be carby for a reason I'm not
aware of, or is this safe LC fare?Opinions please?
