Close your mouth when you eat, you are gulping in air which causes gas to collect........ and chew longer,eat slower. And please stay at home until your manners become socially acceptable.

It farts like a Duck too...
COMMENT 124254P	2010-11-27 11:19 AM
Farts are funny. So are belches. I giggle every time my wife rips a good one.
COMMENT 124258	2010-11-27 11:38 AM
Edda utterly cops out yet again, useless column, thinks she is funny; is very not and even less helpful. Great, taunt and insult a person being vulnerable and looking for help publicly. Beano, Pepto Bismol. activated charcoal tablets (or burnt toast) can all help but basically the writer needs to just find out what foods exacerbate this. I know that if I eat cauliflower, cucumbers, beans, and lately potatoes; that I am going to suffer. Find the gas-forming foods and minimize them in your diet. Possibly you eat too fast and are swallowing air. Eat slower, chew more, know how you react to certain foods. Eat some fresh fruits and vegetables people!

Adults do not digest milk products as well as children do. Removal of milk products from my diet ended all flatulence - no matter what I eat. And no, the doctor was only a quack in what was provided was a small subset of the causes of flatulence. A trip to google will provide more answers and more solutions.
COMMENT 124274P	2010-11-27 01:37 PM
Comment 124261 is right on.Milk products are #1 in fart production right along with beans.If you can put aside both,your wifey will be stoked.As for the burps.......Slow down a little and do not breath in when consuming liquids.If your drinking carbonated beverages than your asking for it.I feel for your wife.It is appaling to be around others that burp and fart and laugh about it or act like its no bother to others.IT STINKS AND ITS GROSS......PERIOD.Over the counter remidies can be tried but are rather useless to the prolific fartmaster.Its truly a consumption issue.Figure it out or be alone ........ thats the bottom line

Farts are warm on crisp cold nights, your never alone when you fart. :)

Roger, you're a gas!
COMMENT 124284	2010-11-27 04:07 PM
258, don't you think Edda considered those points before publishing? Farts are funny. Ask my cats. Yes farts are kind of gross, but I liked "Knocked Up," and "The Hangover." See?
COMMENT 124287P	2010-11-27 04:32 PM
Not only is this not funny, it's officially crossed over into the land of bad taste.
COMMENT 124261P	2010-11-27 04:41 PM
124287P - ditto.
COMMENT 124293	2010-11-27 04:55 PM
Not sure about farts, but gas and burps can be helped with a little sip of apple cider Vinegar. Does not taste good but it s better than heartburn or gas.
COMMENT 124294	2010-11-27 05:00 PM
An age old question, "What is class?" (as in, "that person has class'). People with class have good manners, are polite and don't behave offensively around others. Those who think bodily noises are funny and their stink isn't offensive are just the opposite, "no class" and rude.
AQUAHOLIC	2010-11-27 05:01 PM
Our new dog (H.S. rescue) farts A LOT....audible ones too! Audible dog farts are very rare, we feel special!! hahaha....
COMMENT 124297	2010-11-27 05:07 PM
@ 124258 Somehow you have not yet caught on to the fact that "Edda"'s responses are always, and intentionally, fatuous; that the point is for the advice to come from EdHat readers in the comments section, not to be handed down from on high by "Edda". @ 124287P and 124290P What's funny is when people characterize their personal opinions as "official".
COMMENT 124299	2010-11-27 05:19 PM
Kashi cereal used to be my source of extra gas that unfortunately could not be used to power anything. Vitamin C excess can lead to some powerful eruptions as well. Eliminating one food at a time is a good suggestion.
COMMENT 124300	2010-11-27 05:19 PM
I'm sorry 287P & 290P won't post under a handle, or heaven forbid, their real name. Like I will do. HELLO, it's just a bodily function. . . . Your friend, Dan Seibert. Aquaholic, this thread is awesome!
ROGER DODGER	2010-11-27 05:35 PM
124287P@ Butt only if you could actually taste your fart. Like if the night before you were drinking and you ended up in some dive where they had pickled eggs in a jar from the 70's, pigs feet, maybe some sardines. Those are some Chicago barn burner farts. You better not be working in a barn, with a latern because just before the big boom you'll taste it. The fart I mean.
COMMENT 124304	2010-11-27 05:40 PM
No301. In case you are new to Edhat.com, I've posted hundreds of quality photos to this website. So please, don't insult me. I post here, and I comment here, and I pay here. I paid $52 for a one year subscription. Don't tell me to get over myself.
COMMENT 124305	2010-11-27 05:47 PM
owe up to it, apologize to the ladies and hope it doesn't smell like the bird refuge during an algae bloom. Farts happen. My mom always called them toots....
COMMENT 124261P	2010-11-27 05:58 PM
124301 - Thank you. I basically ignore the posts; hence the protestations amount to nothing but a waste of bullying words. The more it is done the more it is ignored. There are enough other worthwhile and informative posts on EdHat that fly high above them. And those are the very last words on this subject (from me).
SHOREBIRD	2010-11-27 06:29 PM
My mom called them poofers. People who don't understand Edda should stop reading it. Stop the buzz kill.
COMMENT 124326	2010-11-27 08:09 PM
258 said it for me. . .WE are Edda. But can we please use "you're" and "your" in the right places? I see this more and more (your not you're) and we can do better!
COMMENT 124327	2010-11-27 08:11 PM
Oops. Make that 297. So much for paying attention. . .
AQUAHOLIC	2010-11-27 10:18 PM
This thread just reminded me of something my Dad loves to say when describing something strong tasting... " that's stronger than stud horse piss with the foam farted off! "
COMMENT 124243	2010-11-28 06:13 AM
What a lot of whoopee cushions this week's Edda column has produced!
SEEDLADY	2010-11-28 08:21 AM
one word: Acidophilus, bacteria that occur in fermented (yogurt) milk products. Helps reduce the fighting going on in your intestines between different foods. And cut down on greasy foods and sugar, they change the pH in your intestines to "unfriendly territory" for the natural bacteria residing there. My favorite source of acidophilus is KEFIR, a naturally fermented yogurt-type drink. I like tart foods, so it tastes great to me. A couple of lsugs after every meal or snack and I feel great. Trader Joe's brand is very good.
FRANKFROST	2010-11-28 10:02 AM
There was once a French vaudeville performer known as the Petomane (fartmaster). When young he found that he could control his over-gaseous insides to the extent of blowing actual musical notes. At one concert, when he farted the notes of the Marseillaise, several people in the audience died of heart attacks from laughing too hard. I'm not making this up. Try google.

Thanks Frankfrost, In this time of tight employment you just may have described a new career field for the fartalented. (The puckered sphincters continue to complain.)
