It passes through the body undigested. Fiber comes in two varieties, both beneficial to health. Soluble fiber, which can dissolve in water, contains pectin (a soluble gelatinous polysaccharide present in many fruits, used to thicken preserves), gums (an adhesive substance), mucilage (a thick gluey polysaccharide from plant), and some hemicellulose (similar to cellulose but more random). The following food contain soluble fiber: Oatmeal, nuts, beans, and apples. Soluble fiber has the following benefits: lowering glucose levels and cholesterol. Insoluble fiber (insoluble in water) contains cellulose (a polymer of glucose), lignin (a class of complex organic polymers that makes up cell walls and wood), and some hemicellulose. The following foods contain insoluble fiber: Whole wheat, whole grain couscous, brown rice, legumes, carrots, cucumber, and tomatoes. Insoluble fiber has the following benefits: Help food move through one’s digestive system, and help preventing constipation.

Flavor took a backseat in the breeding of hybrids in favor of characteristics that enhanced pro- ductivity, uniformity, disease-resistance, and long shelf life. Heirlooms can have their downside. Though some heirlooms are quite pro- ductive, many produce lower yields than hybrids. Also, heirloom fruits have soft- er flesh and thinner skins, making them less suited to long-term storage because they are more likely to bruise or spoil. But tender skins, plump juiciness, appe- tizing texture, and unadulterated flavor is a big part of what makes growing heir- looms so appealing for a home gardener. WHAT IS AN HEIRLOOM?
