The invention described in this application relates to food compositions such as breakfast cereals, bread and the like which have an enhanced dietary fibre content. In each case the source of dietary fibre is a starch, preferably a maize starch, having an amylose content of 50% or more, the starch being incorporated into a food composition as appropriate. Alternatively, grains or legumes or parts thereof which include starch of this amylose content may be used.
