I recently learned about the carb count in yogurt
HERE. It appears to work a little differently than other foods.
Blue Bunny makes yogurt and according to the article I linked above, it has about 4 carbs per serving. Super WalMart sells Blue Bunny, but I don't live near a Super Walmart. (Can you believe there are no super Wal-marts in LA?) Blue Bunny has a website and you can look up where they sell the yogurt in your area.

I've looked for Blue Bunny ice cream, but I also don't have a nearby Super Walmart. However, I found that Food Lion sells a Splenda-based ice cream under their own brand name. It's identical to the Blue Bunny variety (according to the info they publish on their web site). The flavors I've found at my local Food Lion include Neopolitan, Vanilla, Vanilla-Chocolate swirl, and Carmel Pecan. Great stuff, and only 4 g of carbs per scoop.

Thanks for the interesting link on why the carb content in yogurt is much lower than it appears (due to the bacteria "eating" the lactose sugar). But one must remember that this applies to plain, yogurt only, if they get yogurt with fruit on the bottom, there's no way to avoid those carbs! And if there is fruit on the bottom, there's sugar added too.
I will check into this Blue Bunny yogurt. I am not familiar with that brand. (There are no Super WalMarts in Massachusetts either - yet.)
