I mean, can't you just eat more of it to get the 2g you were counting on?

I'm not sure why the labeling changed. Spinach is spinach and you'd think the fiber content would be pretty much the same, regardless of brand or processing.

Leaf spinach and chopped spinach will have the same fiber content, so it's really just a matter of personal preference.

You have to have the Adobe Acrobat Reader to open that file - it's free from the Adobe website, but if you don't want to download it, that's ok too.

As for other IF sources... basically, there's no such thing as an UNsafe vegetable! Eaten with SF, they're ALL safe. All you can really do is try veggies one at a time and see how your system does with them.

All vegetables actually contain IF - even carrots and sweet potatoes, which "count" as SF, do have some IF in them. Anyway, if you need suggestions... try green beans, tomatoes, corn, asparagus, bell peppers... basically, anything you find in the produce department! LOL Don't forget other sources of IF too: fruits, grains, and legumes. Legumes, especially, are an excellent source of IF, but if you're prone to gassiness, definitely take the addition of them into your diet slowly!
