This is detailed and actually quite fascinating.

Can You Stop Beans From Making You Fart?  We Put 17 Methods to the Test

 

Get it out of your system now; this article is about farting.  More specifically, it's about beans, the uncomfortable bubbles of gas they create in our digestive tracts, and whether we can do anything about it.  It's not a new question,* as the countless articles that have been churned out over the years attempting to answer it make clear.  But those articles don't do much more than repeat the same old advice, much of the time uncritically and with little to no evidentiary basis.  Unwilling to pass along the same folk medicine that so many other publications seem to think is sufficient, we decided it was time to do our own tests.  Is a fart-free bean possible?  Science to the rect...um...um—to the rescue!  [...]

TBoneTX, thanks so much for this important information.

 

With your dietary intake, I am sure you are well versed in this subject.

 

Do you have anything pertinent to add?

1.  You forgot our upvote.

2.  Cat T-B. is purr-tinent and sometimes also fartinent.

since when did primates care whether they passed gas or not?

We central chimpanzees sure don't; unsure about you inferior primates.

KEEPING IT ALL INSIDE

 

A very attractive young lady was sitting in a fine restaurant one night.  She was still feeling bloated from lunch, and she was fearful of farting in front of her date, who hadn't arrived yet.

 

It wasn't long before she actually did let one out, but she managed to cover up the sound with a fake cough.  She continued to wait for her date to arrive, but she wanted to make sure everything was perfect.

 

As she bent down in her chair to get her mirror from her purse, she accidentally farted quite loudly, just as the waiter walked up.

 

Sitting up straight now, embarrassed and red-faced, knowing that that everyone in the place heard her, she turned to the waiter and said, "Stop that!"

 

The waiter looked at her drily and said, "Certainly, madam.  Which way was it headed?"

Still haven't found publications in refereed scientific journals to confirm whether farting outdoors contributes more to global warming than does farting indoors.  This is an outrage.

Aren't chimps the ones that fling poo at each other?

Better to keep it indoors, and especially under the sheets while in bed.

Unlike inferior primates, we have it down to a science.

One sign of a devoted partner:  One of you needs to fart while in bed.  The farter forewarns the fartee of the need at the earliest possible moment, turns a minimum of 90 degrees away (optimally, 180) from the fartee, does the deed, and flaps it out his or her side of the bed.  That's when one knows that one has a winner, si man.
