Default 300+ Grams of Carbs!!!

WOW!!! I was just looking at the carb nutritional facts. After some quick calculations. The US Gov't or whoever is in charge of nutritional labels wants us to eat 300 grams of carbs per day!!!! WHOA!!!

300g of carbs = 100% of daily value

No wonder the country as a whole is over weight. Thank God for Atkins diet.

And it is also crazy how easy it would be to rack up 300 carbs! I looked at the nutrition info on what used to be my favourite 'healthy snack' (yogurt coated flapjack) only to discover that it contains nearly 100 net carbs!!!
