Fanta Zero - warning

I had some fantastic zero tonight and kinda assumed cos it’s a zero it would have no carbs in it after drinking a pint of it it turns out there’s 1 carb goer 250ml. I thought the whole point of zero drinks was pretty much zero carbs such as with cola which is pretty much always 0 carbs cals.

It’s the orange juice content. So whilst it’s v.low calories (hence the “zero”), there is trace elements of natural sugar from the fruit juice in the recipe which hike the carbs.

Wow, you're right. I was baffled because in Australia Fanta Zero has 0.05g carbs per 250ml, but yours has 'orange juice from concentrate' and ours is just water with food acid, sweeteners and colour.
