Stinky Farters Anonymous

Fresh fruit and veggies can actually give you gas. I thought this was common knowledge.

Eat a lot of parsley. Make your own tabbouleh salad and use less barley, onions and spices than the recipe normally asks for. You may have to play around a few times to get the right ratio that works for you.

I'm a vegetarian, so heavy on the fresh produce and beans, and the really had problematic

I'm a vegetarian, so heavy on the fresh produce and beans, and the really bad problematic ones are usually after heavy meals, like when we are travelling and eating out several meals in a row. My regular veggie and bean heavy diet isn't much of a problem, but when I'm eating unhealthy LOOK OUT!!!

Perhaps a fecal transplant could fix this, if you were recolonized with a better bacteria ecosystem. Given that initial gut bacteria colonizations come from our parents, no surprise that stinky farts are hereditary.

OP: It's funny that you mention that because I thought there might be some genetic component to it because my mother can be the same way (although I am worse). How do you deal with letting them out in public?

Pp here: I guess I don't usually have to fart in public. Or I do it and leave the area, or blame it on my husband if he's around.

Omg, was it one of the really bad lingering ones? Once I let out one of those on a ski gondola thinking that all the heavy ski clothes would keep the stink in. It didn't work. EVERYONE was complaining and I had to play along with it so no one would suspect me.

Ha, I am only a moderately stinky farter but this thread is hilarious.

This is true only when you first start eating them in quantity. If you are eating a healthy diet with lots of fruit and veggies your body eventually adjusts and the produce induced farts seem to go away.

LOL, I just found this post through a search because I too have the curse of super stinky gas. It's good to know that I'm not the only one!
