Far better to eat fresh fruit and veg and get your fibre that way.
Our Westeern palates are so overloaded with sugar they've become desensitised to it. That's why cereals that aren't stuffed full of sugar, sugar and more sugar just taste to us like cardboard.

It is possible to re-educate your tongue, with a little persistence. These days I'm amazed at how sugary plain old shreddies with skimmed milk tastes.
