Question Need advice

I noticede on fit Day the carb content in a burger king croissant with egg bacon ,cheese is 25g carbs
and i looked on the Burger King nutrition web site and this is what they have

Carb 6
Carb(%DV) 2
Fibre 1
Fibre(%(DV) 4
Sugars 5


now i know we are not supposed to have this but i just happened to notice this

am i supposed to add all that up as the Carb content
becuase then you would get 13g
which counteracts what fit day has.

I find it hard to believe that a croissant even all by itself has only 6 carbs!

OK, the croissant itself contains 23 carbs and the egg is 2 the cheese is <1 that makes it
almost 26 carbs. I got the info from the BK website here

I'll just bet BK claims not responsible for typo errors on website.

Here's other source reports for same croissant:

http://www.burgerking.ca/en/1102/1104.php (Canada BK) (20 Net c)

MOG is correct. The BK website says it's a total of 26 carbs.
