not to get down in the weeds but carrots aren't that fibrous, but their *available fiber content goes up 2.5x when you cook them, from about 2g per stick to 5g.

not to get down in the weeds but carrots aren't that fibrous, but their *available fiber content goes up 2.5x when you cook them, from about 2g per stick to 5g. leafy greens, especially kale, are better for filling up. and you still need protein and fat on top of that.
- Tagbert 4y agoHow does boiling increase the fiber content of carrots? Where does the extra fiber come from?
