does anyone know how many dried apple rings would make a carb

serving?

I found a site by doing a google search, I typed in 'dried apple

nutrition' the site said 26g of carbs for 1 oz. Dried fruits are high

in sugars. Here's the link

When you remove water you concentrate the sugar.

, You can also try the USDA's Nutrient Data Laboratory, which

has nutrition information for thousands of foods.

http://www.nal.usda.gov/fnic/foodcomp/search/ According to that

database, 100 grams [3.5 oz] of dried apples, uncooked, is 65g

carbs. One ring is 4g. Cooked dried apples have less carbs [15-20g

per 100 grams, depending on whether sugar is added or not].

Sometimes I weigh my fruit to make sure I'm not eating too many

carbs [i loooove fruit]. My scale is only oz/lbs so I convert grams

to ounces at http://www.convert-me.com and then plug the numbers

into the nutrient database. Hope this helps.
