My cream lists 1g carb. Does this mean the manufacturer was more honest?
Probably not — it is not dishonest or less-honest to follow the rules. Cream is an agricultural commodity that has to meet a number of standards, so one brand is unlikely to differ from another unless the producer explains otherwise, for example cream that comes from only one type of cow. More likely, your cream may have less than 36% butterfat and contain other additives to help it whip. That combination may increase the carb count enough to require rounding up to 1g. However, unless it is sweetened, it is unlikely to differ significantly — but read your label carefully.
