It might be the algorithms I’m getting (I follow a lot of cooking and some exercise channels) but I’ve never seen a similar obsession about getting enough fiber (something the average person actually undereats.) Is it just less sexy than meat? How important is it nutritionally compared to other things if you’re not an athlete or a vegan or something? Why is a meal that’s “high in protein” often positioned as good and why do you need to “boost” your meals?

Protein deficiency causes symptoms pretty fast, and has bigger consequences very soon, than eating few fibers. People who cut down too harshly on all nutrients including (accidentally) protein when they try to maintain a caloric deficit, will feel unwell and be discouraged pretty soon too.
