Default Fiber (or as we say, Fibre)
Not sure if I'm posting in the correct forum, so I apologize in advance.

My question is: If in reading a label, only fiber in grams is expressed with no additional details, does this mean it's 100% soluable fiber? I noticed with most food labels of fiber-containing foods that this is the case, however foods like my oatmeal and bread provide a break down in grams/percentages.

I'm trying to 'balance' my fiber intake and ensure I'm getting enough of both types. This is tricky!
