Whole Foods Market just named “Focus on Fiber” one of its top food trends for 2026, and for 3 Farm Daughters, that feels less like a prediction and more like confirmation.
For years, we’ve believed that fiber belongs at the center of the plate, not as an afterthought or supplement, but as part of real, delicious food that fuels the body from the inside out. And according to Whole Foods’ latest Trends Council Report, consumers everywhere are starting to agree.
Fiber Takes the Spotlight
The Whole Foods report highlights a growing “fiber frenzy,” noting how people are turning to food that supports gut health, balanced digestion, and sustained energy. From prebiotic beverages to fiber-rich breads and pastas, it’s clear that the conversation has shifted from how much protein to how well we nourish our microbiome.
Fiber isn’t new, but it’s newly appreciated. Science now shows that prebiotic fiber plays a critical role in supporting the trillions of microbes that make up the gut ecosystem, influencing everything from immune resilience to mood and metabolism.
For 3 Farm Daughters, this understanding has been baked into every bag of pasta since day one.
How We Fit the Trend, and Then Some
Our pasta is crafted from U.S.-grown high-amylose wheat, naturally rich in resistant starch, a special type of prebiotic fiber that feeds beneficial gut bacteria and supports balanced blood sugar. With 4.5× the fiber of traditional pasta and a low glycemic response, it’s an easy (and tasty) way to join the fiber movement without changing how you eat.
It’s not just about numbers, though. It’s about the simplicity of food that works with your body, supporting long-term wellness through clean, thoughtfully sourced ingredients and a family tradition of farming that values both soil health and human health.
A Trend Rooted in Integrity
While trends come and go, we see this one as something deeper: a return to food that does more than fill us up, it helps us function better. That’s been our goal from the start.
We’re proud to be featured in Whole Foods Market’s 2026 Trends Report alongside other innovators shaping the future of food, and even prouder to see high-fiber pasta stepping into the spotlight it deserves.
As consumers seek foods that nourish the gut and sustain energy naturally, 3 Farm Daughters stands as a proof point: fiber-forward food can be wholesome, crave-worthy, and made with integrity from the ground up.
Find us in select Whole Foods Market stores or shop online to experience pasta that’s leading the fiber-forward future, one delicious bowl at a time.
