This is the perfect companion to figure those carbs for you. Atkins lists page after page of NOTHING BUT CARBS! Especially appealing: it's handy to take with you to restaurants and the grocery store. I carried it with me when I went out to eat and was able to select wisely from the menus rather than having to guess what I was ordering/eating. This is worth it!
