Default Original Fiber One?

I absolutely LOVE cereal of all kinds, but most are high in carbs and especially sugars. I tried to find one with a nice amount of fiber and ran across Fiber One's Original Bran Cereal. Meh, it doesn't look too good but I for one mainly like a crunchy cereal.. and although sweet is good for taste, I don't mind the less flavorful varieties. It may also be great with bananas and strawberries or whatever your choice additions may be. Here are the nutritional facts in 1/2 a cup of Fiber One:

Total Fat- 1g
Sat Fat- 0g
Trans Fat- 0g

Cholesterol- 0mg
Sodium- 105mg
Potassium- 180mg

Total Carbs- 25g
Dietary Fiber- 14g (!)
Sugars- 0g
Other Carbs- 11g
Protein- 2g

Since I am new to the low-carb diet, (I have packed on the pounds by doing the low-fat diet.. but now I know carbs are a no-no for me!) I would like your opinions on the nutritional content of this food. Thanks!
