I'm sure we're all familiar with Calorie King by now, but if you're not, it's a great reference for carb counts in all kinds of foods. It's available in book format, online and as I recently discovered, for us mobile techno geeks, there is a mobile specific site. If you've got a mobile browser and you haven't seen it, check it out:

Interesting... I can browse to it on my phone, but when I try to enter a search, my Verizon phone's Web 2.0 browser comes back with an "unsupported content type" error.

Hmm. I've got a Treo 750 (WM6) and it works great. Sounds like it's limited on the browser types. :-(

Either the browser (Verizon MobileWeb Mobile Browser 6.2.3.2 Universal Edition/Openwave Systems), the provider (Verizon Wireless), or the access type (Verizon Wireless phone network)

I love Calorie King!! I don't have a phone that can access it, but I use the website from my computer or the book all the time! Good idea to post this!

Purely at random, I've found a site that will work with Verizon mobile: http://www.thedailyplate.com

Awesome service! Thanks for the link.

Does CK let you track your blood glucose numbers as well? I used to use CK a long time ago but that was way before I got a DX for diabetes. I really want something to put it all together!

Personally, I track all of my numbers through my pump (MiniMed Paradigm). Before that, I downloaded my numbers from my meter using their OneTouch software. I've never checked with CK to see if they can help you track your BG #s. I just love the resource for carbs.
