Beans, Beans, the Magical Fruit

I know many people are afraid to eat beans because of farts 😸 so I'll give some advice:

*our bodies will create an enzyme that will helps digest the beans & decreases the need to fart. It doesn't happen right away but will happen within a short amount of time. Eating beans every other day will help build the enzymes. Ask a vegetarian: you quit farting after a few meals.

*if cooking dry beans (rather than from a can) be sure to soak the beans for 8 hours in water. It removes some of the fart-making aspects of beans, makes them easier to digest, and helps soften them before cooking. If you don't soak them, and just put them in the crockpot, you're in for a bad bloat and lots of farts under the bedsheets!

Of course, we're also famous for our sensitive guts. I almost can't eat lentils or garbanzo beans.

If you ate them more regularly, your body would get used to them.

Beans are one of my favorite foods!
Oh wait the elements of the periodic ta-

I love beans! One of my favorites is refried beans on toast topped with melted cheese. That's just breakfast. 😃
