One serving against a day's fiber

The Dietary Reference Intakes set an Adequate Intake for total fiber of 25 g a day for women aged 19 to 50 and 38 g for men of the same ages. Measured against those, the 10.9 g in a 1 cup, well packed serving of almond paste is 44% of the first and 29% of the second. US food labels use a single Daily Value of 28 g instead, which puts this serving at 39%.

Calorie for calorie, the figure is 1 g of fiber per 100 kcal (this serving is 1040 kcal). Among the 34 nuts with USDA energy data here that is 18th, and 742nd across all 957. The intakes above were derived from 14 g of fiber per 1,000 kcal, or 1.4 g per 100 kcal, so this food sits below the ratio a whole day of eating is meant to reach.

Getting all 25 g from almond paste alone would take 3 servings, and 38 g would take 4. Most days reach the target through several different sources.
