Americans are afraid of farting but everyone else knows this is the secret to a long life.
Toot toot I m centuries old at this point.
Exactly this. My significant other avoids all beans due to the fear of flatulence
Tell them how they can blow up balloons if they fart into it the correct way. That changed my fiancés mind and now she can’t stop farting. She wears roller blades a lot more now.
Too funny lol
There is an actual study disproving that myth (that beans increase flatulence).
The issue is that so few are used to actually eating enough fiber, that they might have a temporary increase in gas when they introduce more for the first time.
Very informative thank you for the reply
My SO hated me eating beans until I discovered that walmart sells a generic bean-o for far less than the name brand. Your loved ones dont have to suffer that fate
What’s Beano? The only Beano I know is this weird ass British comic book that my grandma gave me.
It’s a pill that has an enzyme in it that breaks down the complex carbs in beans and veggies so that you can fully digest them without getting the farts.
Beans and other legumes make up a very significant part of my diet these days. Healthy, cheap and tasty, what’s not to love?
How do you guys cook ‘em?

If they are dried, soak it overnight and cook in on a preassure cooker. if they are fresh its easier to cook.
I add some baking soda to the soak or boiling pot so they’ll soften up faster. explained here.
Soaked overnight and cooked the next afternoon while I’m finishing up work, since the texture of canned beans weirds me out a little. My favorite bean dish, which I just had tonight, is black beans + rice + onions + worcestershire sauce. During the cool seasons I make a lot of bean soups in the slow cooker, but currently it’s “hoard the parmesan rinds in the freezer until it’s soup season” season.
Beans are good. I’m from Texas and there are a lot of people here who think chili with beans isn’t real chili. They’re full of shit (beans’d help with that too)
I’d love to but it fucks up m’ gut, bobandy

I eat them multiple times a day. I have absolutely zero problems with gas.
Once your gut bacteria gets used to having fiber, it’s all good 👌
I love franks and beans.
I’m definitely one of the most picky eaters you’d ever met. I dislike beans, primarily due to the texture. Having said that, I do enjoy hummus, if that counts.
Other legumes like the chickpeas used for hummus are great too
