Oh yes. My diet is already pretty high fiber, I get about 40-60 grams a day on average. However I am about to embark on a journey most dare not dream of.
Two bean burritos on organic tortilla shells. The refried beans have 7g fiber per serving (3.5 servings) and the tortilla shells have 14g fiber per shell for a total of 52.5 fiber in one sitting.
I have eaten large amounts of fiber in one sitting before, I think around 40 is not unnatural. Two servings of whole wheat spaghetti, two servings of sauce and 4 slices of whole wheat bread provide 36g, but never 50g at once.
If this thread gets over 100 views then I really feel sorry for the quality of posts here.
For real fiber, you need Raw Bits (as advertised, years ago, on Prairie Home Companion).
Oat Hulls and Wheat Chaff. Not for everyone. Submit your resume to see if you qualify for Raw Bits!
I think All-Bran™ has 9 grams and the All-Bran™ super-duper has 13 grams.
(My kid needs the stuff and I have to go through and read the labels every once in a while to remember which to buy.)
You know, you could go really high-fiber and chow down on some shredded paper bags. But, I suppose that, culinarily, such a meal would leave much to be desired.
You could double wrap the refried bean paste using two torilla shells each with a thin layer of picante sauce between them to moisten the gullet. Each burrito would then have 35g of fiber for a total of 70 grams in one sitting. Yowza.
There are juice bars that sell grass smoothies, or at least there used to be. You could always do it yourself; just grab some clippings out of the mower bag and throw them in a blender with a yogurt drink.
Askia beat me to it also, but that’s why I love this message board. I’ll post a link though in case some don’t get it. I may be slow, but I’m considerate.
Why don’t you just drop them directly in the toilet and eliminate the middle man?
My mother-in-law makes some bran-date muffins that will hollow you out like unrequited love.
As I was saying to the wife just the other day, “You know, there just aren’t enough pictures of other people’s bowel movements on the Internet.” Thankfully, that is no longer true.
Yes, eat some Colon Blow (or Super Colon Blow, depending on how brave you feel), but maybe you want to have a box of Oops, I Crapped My Pants handy just in case.
