Votes are a metric to measure engagement. Which is valuable information

Mmm swamp ass

You left out this part of your source:

It encompasses a wide range of dietary patterns that contain low amounts of animal products and high amounts of fiber-rich[3] plant products such as vegetables, fruits, whole grains, legumes, nuts, seeds, herbs, and spices.[4][5][6]

If your example doesn’t include high amounts of fiber rich plant products, it isn’t plant-based. According to your own source.

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.

I’m using the definition of plant based diet. You seem to be referring to something you saw on an advertisement maybe?

How do you know?

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.

Since fiber only comes from plants, it’s implied that “low-fiber diet” just means less fiber than what we need. Not necessarily meat without anything else.

Ive seen these disinformation campaigns here on lemmy coming from .ml and hexbear primarily.

If a plant is processed more than harvesting, cutting, packaging it no longer meets the definition of plant based.

According to these definitions of processed vs ultra-processed, you’re describing ultra-processed foods not plant based.

Yeah but that is just because the plant matter has been extracted and the sugars or whatever is left is being used as ingredients.

I’m trying to make the point that extracting ingredients from plants to make food doesn’t make those foods plant based because the plant has been removed.

So removing the plant matter and leaving the sugar/water.

Animal products would be my guess since they don’t contain any fiber at all.

Ketchup, bread and fruit juice all have fiber. So they do in fact increase the dietary fiber.

Whether or not your diet is “low fiber” is decided by how much of these things you eat. If you eat a low quantity your diet will be low in fiber.

It seems disingenuous to claim a diet that excludes all plants except for lowest fiber foods is plant based or low fiber.

Especially since you can still get your daily fiber needs from white bread which contradicts the claim.

One loaf of white bread has about the daily requirement for fiber.

It’s just less than whole grain bread. So not low fiber.

Wouldn’t that be a processed grains based diet instead of a plant based diet since it is only including processed grains and excludes all other forms of plants?

Fiber = plant fiber

How can you have a plant based diet that is low in plant fiber?

It definitely looks like that.

I see the same accounts posting and interacting with each other and reposting the same content with the same comments.

Pretty sus

The comments on here don’t reflect those differences.

It was a combination of foreign election influence, billionaire class and GOP propaganda. And in the end Trump won by 1.5%.

Democrats can only do what the voters allow them to do. All the groups I mention above are actively trying to stop them.
