    Hmm, let’s see…

    One slice of white bread has about 0.5g of fiber. And you are suggesting eating a loaf of white bread a day. Omni Calculator (https://www.omnicalculator.com/health/fiber) suggests for a male who is 5.5 ft, 130 pounds, 30 y.o. should get 29g of fiber - roughly 58 slices. So about 2 loaves of white bread per day would get one in the range for fiber. You are only off by 1/2. Keep trying. You’ll get there.

      1. Definition of a plant-based diet - A plant-based diet consists of all minimally processed fruits, vegetables, whole grains, legumes, nuts and seeds, herbs, and spices and excludes all animal products, including red meat, poultry, fish, eggs, and dairy products.

      There are white breads with more than a gram of fiber per slice and 26 slices per loaf and people that need 25grams or less per day.

      But that doesn’t matter because according to these definitions of processed vs ultra-processed, you’re describing ultra-processed foods not plant based.
