By naturally fermenting beans for two to four days, researchers at Simon Bolivar University in Caracas, Venezuela, reduced by up to 95 percent the flatulence-causing compounds in white beans.

And our researchers seemed rather jovial after the experiment...

"It's like pulling the handle on a slot machine, except I'd rather not lose...

Ooh. You lose, and we all lose with you.

[Mr. Mojo]

"How 'bout some more beans, Mr. Taggart?"

[Mr. Mojo]

I'd say you've had enough

Mr. Taggart...

"Go back t' town and get a sh*tpot full o' nickels!"

I have no idea how gasless they were but in the 1930s there was a brand of beans on the market named:

Fentons Fartless Frijoles

Lamarr: "My mind is a raging torrent, flooded with rivulets of thought cascading into a waterfall of creative alternatives."

Taggart: "Gol- darn it, Mr. Lamarr, you use your tongue prettier than a twenty dollar whore."

Ruining the beans...
I only eat them so I can ..where the heck is the fun in fartless beans?????

[stboz]

Couldn't do it now days......................

All the more reason to do it anyway! The mind boggles at the fun!!!

[Mr. Mojo]

Lamarr: "I want you to round up every vicious criminal and gunslinger in the West. Take this down: I want rustlers, cut-throats, murderers, bounty hunters, desperadoes, mugs, pugs, thugs, nit-wits, half-wits, dim-wits, vipers, snipers, con-men, Indian agents, Mexican bandits, muggers, buggerers, bush-whackers, horn-swagglers, horse-thieves, bull-dykes, train-robbers, bank-robbers, ass-kickers, shit-kickers, and Methodists."

Yep, they don't make 'em like they used to.

[Excuse_My_Bellicosity]

Pretty scary!

[Texas Mom]

My mother found a way to take the gas out of beans years ago. When she soaked them in cold water before cooking and she would add a little baking soda to the water. She did the same with gabbbage and cucumbers.. It doesn't take a rocket scientist.

My mom was a Pennsylvania farmers wife.

Near beans.

You need researchers for that? In Poland people soak beens/peas in water for at least one day before cooking. The beans need to rehydrate and wake up.
