If I make myself a sprout and lentil soup will I do myself some sort of flatus injury?

Along the lines of Bathsheba's poor sheep in Far From the Madding Crowd?

I have lentils and I have sprouts and I want soup, but is that particular combination a step too far do you think?

To avoid drip feeding I have already had 7 prunes today.

You will fart with every step for the rest of the year if you eat that.

I'm not in work this week so no danger of disgracing myself there, just pondering on how many fartogenic food items in one nourishing blended meal is too many?

I wonder if there are any NICE guidelines I can access?

If you add a piece of caraway seed or fennel seeds to the soup that can help some of the more "audible" effects.
I had baked artichokes (Jerusalem) for supper recently at a restaurant.
I spent the entire night being reminded of why their nickname is "fartichokes"!

*pinch, not piece.

I would eat it and fart away🌬

Think of all the goodness in a soup like that !

ScribblyGum · 18/12/2019 12:43

I like fennel so will bung some of them in the mix

After 7 prunes? I hope you're not planning on going out today OP.

Do it properly like I once did:

Muesli for breakfast. Eggs on beans on toast for lunch. Banana for a snack. Evening meal served with sprouts and cabbage for veg.

You'll be a rap star accompanied by your own farts as percussion.
