Hello

Courgette must obviously be called something else in the US

And I don't know what it is!!!! Which might explain why I can never find the carb count on USA carb counter sites!

In the Atkins diet counter I found it listed as courgette in the Squash section. Okay, if I describe it, can you tell me what you call it over there?

hahahaha this is actually quite difficult..... okay, it is a form of squash but small and green, like a small cucumber. Does that help?

Anyone know what US name?

it's a zuccini I think... zuccini tastes like squash and that's fits a cuccumber like description.

Thank you!

Now I'm a moron - if I had seen zuccini written anywhere I would assumed it was a type of pasta!

wow, now I can see why some people were getting confused over the ingredients in the PCOS diet Book!
