A Frenchman has developed a range of pills aimed at making people’s flatulence smell sweeter - of chocolate or of roses - which he says will make the perfect Christmas present.

The 65-year-old artist and inventor says his pills are aimed at easing indigestion and are made of 100 percent natural ingredients such as fennel, seaweed and blueberries.

Mine already smell like roses.

You could sue this guy for infringement of your intellectual intestinal property rights.

crack French scientists

Ha ... I see what you did there ;-)

[The Ghost of FReepers Past]

LOL!

[PGR88]

I can achieve the same thing - with something called a super-mighty-chipotle burrito.

[Gasshog]

God never meant for farts to smell like roses.

So they must stink for a very good reason.

[Organic Panic]

What fun is that?

[Caipirabob]

Great...farts that smell like roses. Now if they could just master the dark arts of basic hygiene that have thus evaded them so far, I might be compelled to consider them part of the civilized world.

[workerbee]

No need. Mine already smell like roses.

We interrupt this thread for an important announcement: FReeper "red-dawg" is, apparently, B. HUSSEIN OBAMA!!!!

[ImJustAnotherOkie]

Mine already do.

[Textide]

LOL, I didn’t.

Having been to France and walking the streets I can tell you the french already possess a very skewed sense of smell, the nastier the odor the better they like it, it will cling to your body and takes weeks to wash away, so bad is it, you will long for the freshness and sweet smelling aroma of the American hog farm:)

get that nobel prize ready!

A fart with any other odor is still a fart.

Gas collects in your intestines, then is propelled out your anus.

[donozark]

Thank you for that thought...

[kaehurowing]

Dictator Obama figured that out 6 years ago.

made of 100 percent natural ingredients such as fennel, seaweed and blueberries.

Oh, fennel, seaweed and blueberries give me terrible gas.

It's a shame he didn't develop this when Le Petomane was doing his one man flatulist shows. Would have made a fine evening out so much more enjoyable.

This Christmas, give her the gift of flower smell. Truly a gift that keeps on giving.

[blueunicorn6]

Or, you could put roses in the back of your underwear. Say an old girlfriend shows up. Not only is she not repulsed by the odor coming from the back of your pants, but you have a ready-made gift to give her.

“How lovely. I’ve never received brown roses before.”

So they must stink for a very good reason.

So we shouldn't bathe either?

I’d be willing to split a case with you just to see if it works on or canine friends.My Rottie can really stench up a room.
