The notorious "Bean Scene" The reviews of Blazing Saddles were mixed with the negatives focusing on the racist jokes and the bad taste scenes such as the bean scene and knocking out the horse scene. It was even suggested by Warner Brothers executives that these scenes be removed prior to release but Brooks contract gave him final cut so they all remained. The positive reviews basically agreed that the overall key to enjoying this film is to realize no one and nothing is shielded from Brooks satire. In doing this, the story emphasizes how ridiculous all racism and prejudices really are and how we all need to laugh at ourselves not others.

Now that is just not right. First they want to take my guns away, and now they want to take away my other lethal weapons.

To "de-gas" beans simply use the quick soak method-
Boil beans in water for 2 minutes, then remove from the heat and let it sit for 2-4 hours with the cover on. Or traditionally- soak overnight or 12 hours.
Next drain and discard the rinse water, rinse again then cover with fresh cold water.
Be sure to thoroughly cook the beans -one to four hours depending on the texture and legume.

This is not exactly a new development to many people.

Fart-Free Beans All you have to do is cook them. You know the fart is gone when the beans crack.

they found it decreased the soluble fibre content by more than 60% Geez, sort of eliminates one of the great virtues of beans.
My daughter lived with a family in the sticks of Nigaragua for several months and lived pretty much on rice and beans. I asked her if she had a gas problem. She said no, when you live on them, your body adjusts.
Besides, enough beans enables one to fart on queue. Very handy skill. Served me well in Books-A-Million. /snigger
