      seems too good to be true. that is a higher protein to cals ratio than an egg has.

      yep, it's legit. i like their high fiber tortillas. they have 71 kcals, 2g fat, 17g carbs (12g fiber) and 8g protein.

      lets do the math,

      2g fat - 18 cals
      17g carbs(12g fiber) - 5 net carbs - 20 cals
      8g prot - 32 cals
      total: 70 cals

      seems like real life to me. only thing you should watch for is that Fiber isn't exactly 0 calories. but as long as you keep fiber intake relatively consistent it shouldnt matter in the long run

      Er no, it's more like 1.5-2 calories.. So the real calories are:

      2g fat - 18cals
      5 net carbs - 20 cals
      12 fiber - 24cals
      8 protein - 32 cals
      =94 calories

      FYI: Soluble fiber is ~2.5 calories per gram and insoluble fiber contributes negligible energy per gram.

      thats assuming it's all soluble fiber and no insoluble fiber which releases 0 calories because it isn't digested
