butternut squash

Does anyone know what is up with the carbs?
I saw one place it said that a 1/4 cup had like 2 carbs in it but then in another book I saw 10 grams of carbs! I'm soooo confused and I want some butternut squash with a nice pat of butta.

this is what I found........
Nutrition Chart

Butternut Squash/1 cup cooked

Calories 82
Total fat (g) 0.2
Saturated fat (g) 0
Monounsaturated fat (g) 0
Polyunsaturated fat (g) 0.1
Dietary fiber (g) 5.7
Protein (g) 2
Carbohydrate (g) 22
Cholesterol (mg) 0
Sodium (mg) 8
Beta-carotene (mg) 8.5
Vitamin C (mg) 31
Magnesium (mg) 60
Manganese (mg) 0.4
Potassium (mg) 582

That's approximately 5 carbs for 1/4 cup cooked, and 1 gram of fiber. So if you do net carbs then count 4 for 1/4 cup cooked
