Why do you want fiber?
Probobly my favorite source is blueberries. Blueberry yogurt is like tastey health in a carton.
For more info, though, quoted from Wikipedia:
"Current recommendations suggest that adults consume 20-35 grams of dietary fiber per day, but the average American's daily intake of dietary fiber is only 14-15 grams. [2] The ADA recommends trying to get most of your dietary fiber from foods you eat, as an important part of consuming variety, nutrition, synergy between nutrients, and possibly phytonutrients. Soluble fiber is found in many foods, including:
legumes (peas, soybeans, and other beans)
oats, rye, and barley
some fruits (particularly apples, bananas), and berries
certain vegetables, such as broccoli and carrots
root vegetables, such as potatoes and yams (the skins are insoluble fiber)
psyllium seed (only about â
soluble fiber).
Legumes also typically contain shorter-chain carbohydrates that are indigestible by the human digestive tract but which are digested by bacteria in the large intestine (colon), which is a cause of flatulence.
Sources of insoluble fiber include
whole grain foods
bran
nuts and seeds
vegetables such as green beans, cauliflower, zucchini, celery
the skins of some fruits, including tomatoes "
