High-Fiber Foods That Actually Taste Great

19. Dark Rye Bread (Pumpernickel): Dense & Earthy Fiber

Authentic dark rye or pumpernickel bread offers a dense texture, a distinctive tangy, earthy flavour, and typically boasts more fiber per slice than standard whole wheat or white breads. This traditional loaf, often found in European-style bakeries (perhaps even near Heidelberg, ON!), makes fantastic, sturdy sandwiches or toast. Top it with avocado, smoked salmon, or sharp cheese for a satisfying meal or snack that contributes significantly to your daily fiber needs.

20. Coconut (Unsweetened Shredded/Flakes): Tropical Fiber Texture

While known for healthy fats, unsweetened coconut (shredded or flaked) is also surprisingly high in dietary fiber, adding fantastic texture and a tropical flavour twist to meals. Sprinkle it onto oatmeal, yogurt, fruit salads, or blend it into smoothies. Use coconut flour (very high fiber) in moderation in baking. Ensure you choose unsweetened varieties, as sweetened coconut often has significant added sugar, negating some health benefits.
