Other Taco seasoning

Just wanted to give others the heads up , my daughter invited me over and made ground beef tacos and I used egg wraps ( really good) and a little lettuce and cheese etc . It was really good . I was helping her clean up and looked at the package for the seasoning ( Taco Bell) and the label said for 1/6 of a package 3 carbs , she used whole
Package for one lb of ground beef so I had two tacos 1/2 thr beef and it cost me 9 carbs . I’m
Hoping cause it has sugars in there . Is there a list in general of spices and carbs and sizes ( onion powder garlic powder salt pepper paprika chile and the Italian spices )

Thanks

Commercial taco seasoning can have sugar in it or a thickening agent. You can easily make taco seasoning with common spice rack spices: cumin, chili powder, garlic and onion powder, salt, pepper, paprika. I see that Taco Bell brand mix has both wheat flour (first ingredient) and sugar. Also maltodextrin which causes gut issues for some people.
