Imagine the research that went into proving that this is an "objectively determinable factual reality."

Though the tribunal split on the issue,

...(i always enjoy a good tie-in)

Posted by: Eleanor | April 12, 2006 at 09:56 AM

C'MON I reported traffic for two years! I am talkin about a TRAFFIC tie up.
Stop bein so perverse!

eleanor, kinky!
Posted by: puppytoes | April 12, 2006 at 10:02 AM
perverse? or just "fun loving"?
Posted by: puppytoes | April 12, 2006 at 10:03 AM
Hey, onions give me gas, too. And sometimes my farts have lumps. That's okay, right?
Posted by: Mr. Completely | April 12, 2006 at 10:20 AM
lumps ? No...not OK. I think a proctologist would smooth that right out for you.

Could somebody tell me what non-factual reality is?
Posted by: Poop Dogg | April 12, 2006 at 10:56 AM
So, wait a minute. There was a major lawsuit over the flatulent producing effects of beans ... and it DIDN'T take place in America?!
Posted by: MOTW | April 12, 2006 at 10:56 AM
Non-factual reality is where my mother lives.

*gasps*
Lab! Does your mom know my mom?
Posted by: KDF | April 12, 2006 at 11:18 AM
Non-factual reality woman is also my wife.
I didn't realize that my kids were bloglits, hey you two, aren't you supposed to be in school?
Posted by: mudstuffin | April 12, 2006 at 11:24 AM
beans make you fart if they aren't rinsed after soaking. Rinsing them gets rid of much of the "fart-booster" compound making them safer for Leetie to eat, or so they said in my food science class:)

It's like that rhyme our parents taught us:
"Beans, beans they're good for your heart
You were adopted
Eat on the floor
And go back to your box."
Stupid thing didn't even rhyme.

C'bol - Another piece of the puzzle falls into place.
Oh, and *SNORK*.
Posted by: Mr. Completely | April 12, 2006 at 01:34 PM
Sarah J - supposedly, this has been disproved - there is not a great reduction in the undigestible oligosaccharides if you soak the beans. Beano is your best bet.

Being a litigation paralegal, I'm SOOOOOO thankful I didn't have to work on the exhibits for that tribunal. Especially since some exhibits are referred to as "blow-ups".
Posted by: slyeyes | April 12, 2006 at 01:42 PM
*snork* at C'bol!
Posted by: southerngirl | April 12, 2006 at 01:52 PM
djtonyb said oligosaccharides - earning him a Triple Word Score!
SNORK @ C-Bol!

some haiku:
a gentle flapping
like wind from a sea-gull's wing
the gas that passes
lentils and limas
cooked in a stew make this one
purr like a kitten
the philosopher
grizzled sage, ponders then speaks
"don't fart on first date"
Posted by: mudstuffin | April 12, 2006 at 02:15 PM
I'm pretty sure the technical term for a lumpy fart is a "shart."
Posted by: Targetgirl | April 12, 2006 at 02:26 PM
Though the tribunal split on the issue, the majority of its members held that the commercial did not breach the code.
nothin' worse that a breach-splitting issue.

Temporary condition my ass.
Had to be said.

MOTW - Food - It's not just my hobby, it's an obsession. ;) I love reading about food, and the science behind it. Of course, it can get really annoying to the dinner guests...
