Well, today a grilled chicken sandwich from Wendy’s so I guess the bun was my fibre intake for the day.
Mostly breads of one kind.or another.

I ate hay once. In some Special Brownies in thw 70s. Totally RUINED the brownies and didn’t even get high.

Instant or stove top @kritiper?

I don’t think about it much, but I do eat about a head of kale per week, and bread and oats and apples regularly.

Greens and beans.

Every day, nuts, fruit and vegetables. Occasionally oatmeal. I try to eat bread that has whole grains in it.

I always eat whole grain bread and pasta. I’m glad my parents rarely offered the white alternative. When you grow up on it, the whole grain version tastes great.

I usually get some vegetables with dinner or to snack on, but fruit I only really eat when I’m smart enough to pre-blend smoothies. That’s because I grew up eating not just whole grains, but also organic fruit. Since “organic” around here tends to go along with “local”, the few fruits I like in their raw and unblended way are only available during Summer.

@Dutchess_lll Stove top Quick Oats. 2 servings.

Cheerios are my main goto for fiber. I love them dry & eat them by the hand full!!!

1. Beans. Think three-bean salad, bean burritos, chili, soup.

2. Whole grains. That means whole-wheat bread, pasta, etc.

3. Brown rice. White rice doesn’t offer much fiber.

4. Popcorn. It’s a great source of fiber.

5. Nuts. Almonds, pecans, and walnuts have more fiber than other nuts.

6. Baked potato with skin. It’s the skin that’s important here.

7. Berries. All those seeds, plus the skin, give great fiber to any berry.

8. Bran cereal. Actually, any cereal that has 5 grams of fiber or more in a serving counts as high fiber.

9. Oatmeal. Whether its microwaved or stove-cooked, oatmeal is good fiber.

10. Vegetables. The crunchier, the better.
