It's not so much about the number as it is about the percentage. Something could be only 5 grams of carbs (like a teaspoon of sugar) but it is 100% carbs! So make sure to look at the serving size as well as the carb count. Also, keep in mind, fiber can often be subtracted from the total carbs to get "net carbs". This way, many vegetables are considered low carb since the fiber they contain is not digested by the human body, and thus doesn't affect blood sugar.

Refer to this list of low carb friendly foods, as well as this low carb vegetable look-up. Hope that helps!
