The poor guy that thinks he's doing you a favor by giving a little extra...

For the most part, when I eat out, I can successfully guesstimate the carb content. Even for places that have the nutritional info, I don't really bother to look.

It would pose all sorts of issues if restaurants were legally required to give out nutrition info. Eat where you feel comfortable eating... if you're unsure of what's in something, you can always ask the waiter and they are usually willing to find out for you.
