Fiber makes you less hungry and is completely antithetical to how the modern food industry operates.
One huge pet peeve of mine recently is when I'm shopping for high fiber foods, these days everything claiming to be high fiber is also loaded with sugar because "zero net carbs".
Oatmeal has good fiber, but it's nearly impossible to find sanely portioned oatmeal that isn't loaded with sugar. Some foods like almonds have a ton of fiber, but they load them up with salt to trick your brain into eating a ton of them.
It seems like you either have to make everything from scratch yourself, which is a huge time suck, and really bad for portion control, or you stick to the over-processed junk food that stores will sell you, and spend all your energy practicing will power not to succumb to the evils of modern food science.
