Beans, Broccoli, Salad, Fiber One cereal has 14 grams per serving (at only 60 cals, I might add).
Thats about it off the top of my head. You should only have about 25 grams of fiber a day. Anymore than that and you WON'T go. Be sure to drink plently of liquids too.

Brocolli, bran flakes (high fibre cereals), beans, lentils, oats, nuts, pulses, bananas and apples. Make sure to drink plenty of fluids such as water as with fibre , you need extra water or else you may become constipated.

Bran like in Raisin Bran. All though it doesn't taste that good, it's high.
