Buy some nose plugs and take that curdled tofu smell like a MAN.<BR/><BR/>Thank you wendela for stooping to down and responding to such a primal post. I've gone awhile without a fart story and I felt the need to get back to my roots. We didn't eat baked beans yesterday, just broccoli. Save me, Febreeze!<BR/><BR/>Jams, thanks for that inspiring link about Pujol. A "professional farter"? I may have found a new career direction in my life. Glad to know that us carnivores don't suffer stank alone. Why should Vegans be left out of the flatulence fun? <BR/><BR/>Asparagus pee? I must don my lab coat and do research on that one. Papi is stinkier than me. Oh well, I can't win at every competition with him.elasticwaistbandladyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12643871078268503643noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20441833.post-1152075108731796582006-07-04T23:51:00.000-05:002006-07-04T23:51:00.000-05:00You know that book Everyone Far** says that vegeta...You know that book Everyone Far** says that vegetarians toot a lot but with less stink, and that carnivores poot less but stink to high heaven. As a person who has lived exclusively vegan, and then vegetarian, and now little meat, I really haven't noticed that much difference. But compared to my husband who is way more carnivorous, I can objectively say (with my daughters as judges) that daddy stinks waaayy more than mommy. <BR/>[As an aside, you know what I can't abide? Asparagus pee. Is that too much info? ;) ]Elizabeth-Whttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12215621448451413460noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20441833.post-1152046527171744602006-07-04T15:55:00.000-05:002006-07-04T15:55:00.000-05:00ps I hope you are all enjoying your public holiday...ps I hope you are all enjoying your public holidayjams o donnellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17315325008175184363noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20441833.post-1152046479640608512006-07-04T15:54:00.000-05:002006-07-04T15:54:00.000-05:00I can assure you that our farts smell!!

Is it possible to have TWO Vegans in one tiny piece of cyberspace? <BR/><BR/>Holy cow, I guess that means that I'll have to break out the falafel and Veggie Burgers when we party.

If that's another word for "overpowering, lingering stench able to traumatize and/or scorch nasal passages for incredibly long periods of time" then yes. The smell doesn't kill you so much as simply make you wish you were dead.<BR/><BR/>My guess is that nutritionist simply hates people and wants to hurt them.Bill Chttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09814379524664994701noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20441833.post-1152011161827021262006-07-04T06:06:00.000-05:002006-07-04T06:06:00.000-05:00Christo, I listen to an interesting talk radio pro...Christo, I listen to an interesting talk radio program during the nights and they once featured a nutritionist discussing the fact that vegetarians and Vegans have sweeter smelling farts and, um.... ahem, <I>bodily fluids</I>, than carnivores do. Something about the animal proteins and fat breaking down in a persons body leads to quite a stench. <BR/><BR/><BR/>Maybe jams, the official Vegan poster of The SMiling Infidel blog can deny or confirm this conjecture. So, jams, are you telling us that your farts don't stink? If true, then your home must be a little slice of Heaven on Earth. :)elasticwaistbandladyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12643871078268503643noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20441833.post-1151979295801018012006-07-03T21:14:00.000-05:002006-07-03T21:14:00.000-05:00Hmm, I wonder if the farts smelled of blueberries....Hmm, I wonder if the farts smelled of blueberries...

You know that I'm a perfectionist, so I struck with the veracity of a deadly military assault copter. I think Papi was close to losing consciousness for a few minutes. Mission accomplished, sir. Over and out.<BR/><BR/>You Britons and your fancy speak, jams. I had to look up carminative, thus giving me a new vocabulary word with which to articulate my gas stories with. Yes, we ate refried beans; legendary for their carminative powers.<BR/><BR/>"You'll Never Fart Alone". That's an instant classic, carrot. Thanks for the rumbling............LAUGH!<BR/><BR/>Actually no, elizabeth, I rarely burp. Good hypothesis, needs more research and data to back up speculative theory though.
