OK Dave, I'll tell you what. I'll dedicate my next fart to Kevin. Of course, with his bad luck, it'll probably be a wet one :-)

Hi Dave H,
talking about fart, I made a 'beef and refried beans burritos' for our lunch yesterday and Oh Boy!!! me and my hubby had a great farting contest last night *LOL* I had to spray our house with an air freshener )

Thanks for that funny story NNP.

Those refried beans will do it every time. Can I ask you a personal question? Do your farts stink? The reason that I asked is because from my experience with Filipinas, I have never been able to smell their farts. They seem to be able to fart just as often and almost as loudly as I can, but for some strange reason, their farts just don't have any odor. Is this just an anomaly, or is there some possible genetic explanation for this?

Note: This is a serious question… :-)

Thanks,

Ray

Hi Ray,
Here's my answer to your serious question ha,ha,ha *LOL*
Just like Jeff S. and Kevin said it depends on the food consumed because I noticed also that after I ate fried dried fish/squid, shrimp or anchovy (fish) paste it gives me a real stinky farts ) so I don't know about other Filipinas.

A lady goes to her doctor and tells him she's had terrible gas, but her farts are totally silent and completely odorless. She says this has allowed her to pass gas anytime she wishes, and had, in fact farted several times during their conversation. The doctor perscribes a medication and asks her to return in a week. When she returns, she told the doctor that now, her farts were still completely silent but had turned very foul smelling, to which he replied, "OK, we got your nose fixed, time to work on your hearing."

Anyway, for an answer to your question, fart odor seens to be related to diet. I've noticed when I consume more meat and less grains, I have less gas but it is far smellier than if I consume whole grains and seafood. I noticed this after reading somewhere about why cats bury their excrement. In it there was a discussion about the odor of carnivore waste being much stronger than herbivores. Anyway, I'll bet it has to do with differences in diet.

I've had my cat for about two years now.  My cat makes up for me by abstaining from farting.  Although sometimes in the morning I have a "quack-meow" conversation with my cat, and one time while lyning on the couch watching TV, while the cat was cozily resting on my butt and I suddenly scared the hell out of it, my cat has only farted once.

This was in June 2000.  I was trying to study.  The cat jumps up on my lap.  When she jumped off, she farted.  It was quiet.  But man did it stink!!  It smelled like rotting meat.

True, diet has bearing on the farts because of the kinds of gas produced.  Bean induced farts tend to be warm.  In general, legume induced farts tend to have a slight foul odor, like rotton potato chips.  Sometimes there is no odor. Meat induced farts really stink, which explains why when dogs and cats fart the odor is so pungent.

Well, somewhere I read that cattle farts are having an adverse impact on the environment.  In the article, I read that where land was deforested, and made for cattle grazing, one of the causes of environmental deteriation was the frequencies and quantities of intestinal gas passed by the cattle.

I wonder if this has ever been a hazard.  Whale farts.  It's concievable that if whale is down deep enough, near a small boat, and it farts, a giant bubble could rise to the surface, and if the boat is in its path, the occupants are in trouble.

See Kevin,

You and Ray agree on your love of farts. Maybe there's hope for you two yet!

KING and QUEEN of FART ))

What about this:

We have a cat named BOO.  Whenever one of us (me
and hubby)  farts we always blame  the BOO. Last
night, while we were in bed,  BOO was there too. Boo
went away and then hubby seriously said " Boo was
farting". I asked him many times, " are you sure it's  Boo
who farted?"  " Yes, I am sure. He farted and left ", said
hubby.  I was laughing so hard coz I knew that I'm the
one. Then, I told him it's me....so we both laugh and
teased him about it.

Gitik, gitik, gitika ko ))

Hey Peaches,

You know it smells bad when the cat or dog gets up and walks out of the room. ;o)))
