Fiber One

BODYBUILDING SUPPLEMENTS
High Quality Supplements For Bodybuilders and Athletes. www.ironmaglabs.com
Im doing TP's carb cycling and am not a big fan of some of the carbs (allowed ) except for oats and brown rice. Anybody know what fiber one is? Are we just talking about the 'all bran cereal?' Like bran flakes or bran buds? I just was in the store tonight and read some lablels, and dont know for sure. I hope those will do! Oh, and if their are any fans of yams, Im willing to try them, but have no idea of any recipes, pleeze! I've never had one in my life!

fiber one rocks! they need to make the box prettier and i think more people would buy it. i thought it would taste like tree bark, but i was wrong. try it youll like it!

also can be used as a topping. i like it n cottage cheese and salad

I tried some for the first time today. Very eatable.

Has aspartame in it though.



I love the sound of clanging iron in the morning. It sounds like victory.

What about all-bran from kellogs, anyone ever tried that?

I just recently starting grinding Fiber One in my protein shakes -- its rather good.

As someone suggested, it goes nicely with cottage cheese as well.

When bulking, its excellent with skim milk.

What about boiling the sweet potatoe and mashing it?

I just got some all-bran extra fiber from kellogs and am not exactly pleased with it. Doesn't taste too hot, anyone else try this? It's not too bad, just not something i'd look forward to.

ITs available at the Food basic on Highbury & Oxford. That's the only place that I have seen it. Actually Fibre One has is too processed, for my liking. Sure it contains a shitload of fibre but also has asperatame, maltodextrin, and some other stuff. I usually buy Shredded Wheat. Only Ingrediets 100% Whole Wheat, Wheat Bran. More Starches than fibre but no other junk.
