| This should be called fiber and cheese...18 grams - that's 7 shy of an entire day's worth. That might make it the most filling bowl of mac and cheese in the history of the world, not to mention that it is also the lightest on calories and fat by a long stretch. This mega light version tastes just like your regular bowl of macaroni and cheese, which is pretty amazing when you think about how much better for you it is. Although this brand is not all natural and does not make whole grain products, they do not use any offensive ingredients (such as HFCS, artificial sweeteners or controversial coloring agents), so that is a big plus. |

| Fiber Gourmet is a Calorista must have - with 18 grams of fiber and about 50 fewer calories than the lightest grocery store brands (Bionaturae and Dreamfields), this pasta tastes every bit as good as the "really bad for you" type of pasta! You do have to order it online, which is kind of a pain, but well worth it! You can order a sampler pack, which is great in helping you decide what your favorites are. Downside: Although this pasta is super high in fiber, it does not have whole grains. |

| This organic raw food bar has 14 grams of fiber and tastes kind of like a hearty cranberry fruit strip. It has pureed cranberries, nuts and oats formed into a bar, but all you really taste is the fruit with the texture of the nuts and oats. I liked the taste of these better than GNU high fiber bars, as it was more pure and "whole food" tasting. You'll notice this bar is insanely high in sugar, but it has no added sugars, meaning all of the sugar comes from the pureed fruit. This bar is also gluten free, as the fiber comes from gluten free oat fiber. |

| Eatin' La VIVE Loca...this is one of those crazy AMAZING food finds. All natural (meaning no artificial sweeteners or High Fructose Corn Syrup (HFCS)), probiotic (for digestive health), tons of fiber, a good source of protein, no cholesterol and low in sodium. It is also great on cals/gram (or calorie density). The best part: it tastes awesome. The ginger-vanilla flavor makes all the bitter fiber taste disappear. The single only downside to this cereal is the high amount of sugar: 10 grams. If you are a big fan of Kashi's GOLEAN cereals, this one is much sweeter, so you may not like it. |
