Fiber is not present in dairy and meat products. Most processed food does not have sufficient fiber to mention.
There is fiber in oat bran, oatmeal as in porridge, wheat bran (all-bran/ bran buds) whole wheat bread, vegetables such as green beans, green peas, squash, tomatoes, lettuce, celery, cabbage, beans as in chili and baked beans..
Raw apples, berries, oranges, grapefruit, apricots and prunes are all high in fiber..
But, remember fiber does not work unless you drink a lot, preferably water.
Hope this list is useful to you for a start. You can go to nutrition site as on U.S.D.A. for more detailed information. .
