So, how do beans help?

its all down to your diet. baked beans contain sugars that can not be broken down. instead staying in the gut to ferment.

FART" stands for: Frequency Actuated Rectal Tremor

Really? I could think of many times when that could come in handy!

[Sidders]

Sugar can be broken down, it's fibre that can't be broken down.

[coolamoke]

is this common knowledge to you coolamoke or did you just look that up?

adam

I knew it was the gases that smelled and I knew that it wasn't methane, so I did look them up for accuracy.

I am very very bored at work does it show?

[ASG]

No, not at all

Sugar can be broken down, it's fibre that can't be broken down.

I meant the FART defintion...

[Sidders]

I was replying to Adam, but you beat me to it.

[ASG]

Sorry...Is the FART thing true then?

[Adam]

yes- could i ask- what do you do as a job? looking at your profile- ur in IT

sidla: sugar comes in many forms. beans are loaded with sugar. baked beans has a good source of sugar, carbs and fibre.

The job thing, was that directed at coolamoke?

[coolamoke]

I work as an IT Project Manger type thingie.

Fact is though me and over 1000 other workers here have just been told we are being made redundant, so to be honest I am just surfing - no work to do anyway and looking for a new job!!

[Adam]

I've had a great laugh doing it because I work on web stuff, but the pay has not been very good, certainly not compared to what people think you earn.

Finding a new job is not as easy as you think - there are so many people in IT, and everyone seems to be looking for a new job

Just keeping my chin up and hoping to land something soon - Northants is not the technological centre of the UK as well

I know, but sugar can be digested, it's the fibre that sits around in the bowel creating these foul gasses.

[Adam]

the sugar does as well...

Gosh beans make you fart, its a fact that we don't delve into!

[Nablo.]

To late a full scale debate over it has begun.
