    Are we talking filling initially or filling for a long time? Cucumber and hummus are pretty filling and low calorie- you can eat a huge sliced cucumber for 34 calories- add 2 or 3 tablespoons hummus for 50- 75 calories and that will do for a while (lots of water).

    What is the control? Are we talking the same amount (volume) of food, the same calorie count or something else? For example, I find both sweet potatoes and hummus very filling. If I ate as much hummus as sweet potato I'd be much fuller from the hummus, but the calorie count would be crazy high.

    By volume, I'd proabably go with a sweet potato.

    OATMEAL! (the natural stuff with fresh ground flax mixed in, chia seeds, half a banana, almond milk, and a dallop of natural peanut butter) If I eat this at 9:00am, I'm not hungry until 1:00pm

    I'm jealous of anyone who fills up on oatmeal. It tastes like lumpy, hot water to me, and I'm far hungrier when I finish eating it than I was when I started.

    I think the most filling food is popcorn, though I've sadly had to give up the stuff with the nuclear-orange cheese powder on it.

    Try mixing honey and some fruits into it. Tastes very good actually

    Mmm pizza! I eat sandwiches every day for lunch or dinner. Egg or chicken salad for a good balance of carbs and protein so I good to go for the rest of the night.
