Grandma used to say, "Eat more roughage!", I replied, "When Little Debbies get more roughage, I'll be eating more!".  Mom didn't say anything, she had a mouth full of Hershey's Kisses.  Anyway, I've known for a long time I need more fiber in my diet.  If you are like me, and Lord help you if you are, you have a hard time finding things you LIKE to eat containing the fiber you need.

I read somewhere (I'm pretty sure it wasn't Entertainment Weekly), but I can't remember where, we need about 30 grams of fiber a day and most of us don't get it. Fiber is one of the best nutrients we eat the least. ...

Trying to Get More Fiber, a chocolate lover!, a person who enjoys quality

Bottom-Line: General Mill Fiber One snack bars have found a place in the pantry.  I like the whole grain goodness, the great taste and high fiber. 

I am modifying my diet; I want to lose weight, but at a reasonable pace; i.e. 1 or 2 pounds a week.  But I spend a lot of time on the road, so finding foods to snack on through my long days has been a huge challenge, one that all too often lead me to McDonalds, Wendy's Burger King, or some other fast food joint. 

So as much as I love fast food for the convenience and its ability to fill me up, in order to lose the weight, I have to give them up. ...

Trying to Get More Fiber

NOV

2007

In my never ending quest to get more fiber I have found a couple of snack bars that fulfill both my need to increase my fiber intake, and my need to satisfy my sweet tooth.  One of my favorites is General Mills Fiber One Oats and Chocolate Chewy Bars.

These yummy bars are a lot like chewy granola bars as far as size and shape are concerened.  The come 5 to a box.  You will find them in the grocery store around the cereal and granola bars.  The taste is a lot like eating a chewy granola bar as well, except these are a bit more chewy, and you can actually see and taste chocolate chips, yummy.

These are one of my favorite snacks (and sometimes breakfast!) since I started doing Weight Watchers!  They taste SO good and are only TWO POINTS!!  One will usually fill me up, but if I've got a real sweet tooth on a particular day, I may sneak in two!  All of my kids love these too, so it's hard to keep these stocked in my pantry!  (By the way, you can buy these in bulk at Sam's Club!)  I have never had a problem with gas or diarrhea like some people have complained about (and neither have my kids), but they do help me to stay 'regular'.  I really like that these have a lot of fiber and... review »

Fiber One bars are an excellent source of fiber. They come in 3 flavors: Chocolate Chip, Peanut Butter and Caramel. I have tried the first one and the last one and they are quite yummy, one would hardly know they are good for you, they are like eating a candy bar or a granola bar.

Recently I found these bars in the grocery store and they looked good, so I had to try them. Wow! I was very impressed. They have a great taste and are packed with fiber. This bar is good as a snack, and is good if you want something sweet because the chocolate has the right amount of sweetness. Because of the high fiber, these are good to keep hunger at bay if you can't eat breakfast/lunch immediately.

These bars are also good if you're on a diet, because they have high fiber and are nutritious (they're only 2 points a bar on Weight Watchers). The Peanut Butter flavored one is good too, but not...

When I am on the run, which is always.  I like to grab something that is fast and easy to eat.  I keep these because they are healthy and taste good.  Yes, they have sugar and some fat, but they are better for you that all of the others.  And these have taste.

Fiber One Oats and Chocolate Chewy Bars by General Mills are FANTASTIC! When I first tried these bars, I must admit I was somewhat skeptical. I really did not think that any type of grain (cereal, breakfast bars, etc.) that was loaded with so much fiber, could be so great tasting! This great-tasting bar has a wonderful, chewy texture. It is loaded with oats and has just enough chocolatey flavor to satisfy your "sweet tooth." It is a good feeling knowing that I can enjoy satisfying my "sweet tooth" while, at the same time, providing my body with great health benefits. My "sluggish system" really... review »

I received a free sample of General Mills Fiber One Oats & Chocolate  Chewy Bar and thought I'd give it a shot.  I just tried it because I needed a quick snack to hold me over between lunch & dinner & I was pleasanlty surprised.  I imagined it to taste somewhat like cardboard, but this took care of the sweet craving I was having.  Each bar, of this variety at least, has 140 calories and 4 grams of fat in it so it's not what I usually try for for an afternoon snack.  (I try to keep snacks more towards the 100 calorie mark).  It was a decent size comparable to other snack granola bars.  The...

Fiber One Oats and Chocolate Chewy Bars do not last long in my house because my whole family loves them.   They satisfy my chocolate cravings (and that is quite a feat!) without leaving me feeling guilty.   I keep them for breakfast on those crazy, busy mornings and I keep them to send with my kids as snacks on busy days.  They are easy to take along in my purse or in my daughters' dance bags and the are not messy.  My husband even takes them when he goes fishing (they fit in his shirt pocket!)  They are basically like a healthier version of candy bars and my husband and kids don't grumble...

I love junk food. Period. And I'm very big on "bars" because they're easy and quick to eat, and I can eat them on the go. I saw these at Target when they first came out. I was walking around the store and was starving; I saw they had a lot of fiber in them and knew that would at least fill me up, so I grabbed a box and ate one. I was suprised at how good it was. Not only did it totally tide me over till dinner, it was DELISH!! I actually eat these when I'm craving something sweet... I satisfy the craving and I get a lot of fiber, besides. And who doesn't need more fiber? If you like chocolate,... review »

These bars are my favorite snack. They are high fiber, low calorie and they taste great. Hmmm......What's the catch? These things are totally addictive! I am on a liquid diet and I am allowed to have up to 2 snack bars sold ny the diet center. But, at $1.25 a pop, I couldn't afford to snack often until I found these gems. They meet or exceed the nutritional guidelined of my diet and are much cheaper. That being said, i must warn, those of you not used to high fiber must proceed with caution! These little gems are packed with 2 bowls of oatmeal's worth of fiber. If in doubt, eat 1/2 a bar the first... review »

I have chronic constipation due to some of the medications I have to take.  I'm only 33yrs old and I just can't stand the powders and mix in stuff I'm supposed to take.  I, however, LOVE granola bars!  I was excited to try these but they were outside my price range until I got a coupon in the mail.  I don't care what they cost, I'm SO TOTALLY buying these again!  They don't taste good for you AT ALL!  They're chewy and sweet and chocolatey good and I love how they're more substantial than just a regular old chocolate chip granola bar.  OUTSTANDING PRODUCT and it totally helped with my little...

These are the best snack bars on the grocery shelves. I love these bars any time of the day. They are chocolatey and chewy and taste like a gooey fat filled snack. They are great with coffe or tea and a super snack any time of the day. I carry these with me and if I get hungry I can eat a healthy snack instead of grabbing a candy bar.

i have been tryin to up my intake of fiber and these bars are loaded with fiber. They have a great taste- no woody tasting ingredients. I highly recomend these to anyone trying to incease fiber or just looking for a healthy great tasting chocolatey snack.

These come...
