how many grams of carbohydrates equals a teaspoon
I was told no more than 6 grams. One packet of sugar contains about 4 grams of carbohydrate, all of which come from sugar, a type of carbohydrate. A teaspoon of sugar also contains 4 grams of carb. A tablespoon of sugar contains 12 grams of carb (there are three teaspoons in a tablespoon). So, for every 4 grams of sugar that you see on a Nutrition Facts food label, you can picture a teaspoon or a packet of sugar.
