Beans, beans, the musical fruit. The more you eat, the more you toot. Right?These days I've found beans to be a great source of vitamins and protein, and they're easy on the budget. Problem is, you can get a little gassy after eating. And then it's not just your problem. It's everyone's.
Here are a couple ideas. If you like your beans out of a can, be sure to rinse them before cooking with them. Not only does this reduce the amount of sodium intake, but it takes away some of the gassy-ness of the beans.
Another great tip that I can attest to is to add 1/2 teaspoon of baking soda to whatever bean dish you are whipping up. It will fizz/foam just a little when you put it in there, most likely. That's okay. Just stir it in really well. This helped cut the "musicality" of the beans to almost nil.
