Almost all raw veggies can be cooked; even lettuce. Cooked veggies contain roughly the same amount of dietary fiber. Some cooked ones contain a bit more because the cooking can produce things like resistant starches which act like SF. Many cooked veggies can be eaten cold. Instead of preparing a single serving prepare 2 or 3 servings. Put the other servings in the fridge to be eaten at lunch or elsewhere.
You cannot control the contents of V8 juice. Buy a juicer and make your own. This way you know it contains IBS safe peel veggies and fruit and you can control the the amount of IF from the pulp it contains.
You can always substitute fruit - even canned fruit - for veggies to get the fiber you need.
There are many imaginative ways to get 30 grams or more of IBS safe fiber per day without doing a lot of cooking or eating prepared processed foods.
