Fiber Anyone?


Kathy's email brought up a great topic. Fiber. I did a quick google and came up with site with a decent fiber chart. I've seen the range of "daily needed fiber" go anywhere from 19-40...and that most people fall way short of that.
How do you get your fiber? How much do you think you get a day?
Some of the big sources are:
bran cereal, ww pasta, dry brown rice, rolled oats, soybeans, lima beans, kidney beans, lentils, black beans, avocado, cooked carrots, sweet potato, sweet corn, grapefruit, blueberries & raspberries.
And PLEASE post any good fiber facts or websites in a comment to this post.
THANKS!
