This missing information is the amount of functional fiber such as resistant starch. Functional fiber acts like a soluble fiber.

Bananas, applesauce, sweet potatoes, potatoes, rice and a variety of other foods contain resistant starch. When you add the amount of resistant starch to the amount of soluble fiber then some of these foods will have more soluble fiber than insoluble fiber.

Unfortunately, very few tables give the amount of functional fiber in foods and it isn't required by labeling laws. For a full description of how functional fiber fits into the total dietary fiber picture read this posting
