Foods that contain sugars, starches and fiber all belong to the carbohydrate camp. With the exception of un-absorbable fiber, all carbohydrates are converted during digestion into smaller molecules of glucose, the essential source of energy used by every cell in the body. Carbohydrates are mostly plant-based foods -- fruits, vegetables, grains, and legumes -- with the exception of dairy products, which are animal-based carbohydrates. They are comprised of single, double or multiple groupings of hydrogen and oxygen linked together in chains.

Hii
Carbohydrates are found in a wide array of both healthy and unhealthy foods—bread, beans, milk, popcorn, potatoes, cookies, spaghetti, soft drinks, corn, and cherry pie. ... Carbohydrates provide the body with glucose, which is converted to energy used to support bodily functions and physical activity.
