I noticed that this week when I started eating Fiber One Blueberry muffins I have had excessive gas all day. So bad that I cant control it. I looked up high fiber and gas and the first site I clicked on said that Fiber One brand anything is known for creating gas. Horrible gas. Everyone was posting how they had it all day. My husband wants to eat one just to see if he gets gas. lol. Just thought I should warn you if you eat them you may get the farts. I am not going to stop eating them but I will only eat them if I dont have to go somewhere. lol

  • Yes, Fiber One will do that to you. My step-dad once ate *gulp* 9 Fiber One Bars in one day...he was so sick he just lied on the floor and couldn't move anything without it hurting.
  • Awww, your poor father! Did he just really like the taste? I'm bad about eating more than one serving of fiber one muffins. They're just so gooooood.

    We just call the Fiber One bars "the farty bars." I took a bath and felt like I was in a jacuzzi tub! :embarassed:


    I still eat them, though. And the cereal.
  • omg yes,, I will never buy that again

    He was working an unexpected 72 hour shift and didn't have any meals packed except for the 2 boxes of Fiber One bars sitting in his desk drawer, so he just kept grabbing them oblivious to the side effects. He refuses to eat one now.

    hahah this made me laugh cuz I used USED to eat fibre 1 cereal everyday to get my 54% in but I too had UNCONTROLLABLE gas ... I gave up and opted for Corn Bran cereal - higher in sugar but still have lots of fiber .. maybe beano ?

    hahahahaha sorry but this visual makes me laugh, I was sick once, and a few days later was so hungry I cooked up a bowl of Brussle sprouts, man did I ever feel pain!!!!!!! the gas after the pain subsided was kinda fun though! hahaha
