Came across this online article tonight...

Do you have these brands too outside the U.S.? At some point in my life, I've overeaten all of them at least once.
Oh, and if you happen to notice the link to a study in the "#5 Most Addictive Food" section, be sure to click on it.
It's a new study on the fiber, oligofructose, "a naturally occurring dietary fibre found in vegetables such as onions and other foods such as bananas."
According to the study's lead author, Nina Cluny, PhD:
"Despite having constant access to food high in fat and sugar, rats given supplemental oligofructose fibre gained about one third less weight than the control group."
"The effect was seen regardless of the animals' genetic predisposition to obesity, with rats prone to obesity and those that were more resistant and relatively leaner showing similar results. "The striking finding was they both gained far less weight than controls".
Cluny also says "the study showed microbiota in obese rats given oligofructose were changed to be more similar to those of lean animals. Gut hormones were also affected by the oligofructose, including an increase of a hormone that helps control the sensation of satiety -- the feeling of being full."
