Mine is sage and onion stuffing - oh my lord! Anyone else care for a bit of lighthearted divulging? Better out than in, after all!

Dried apricots here too

Christmashope19 · 29/03/2020 21:58

Vegetarian haggis honestly I spent the whole night awake with wind!

kissmelittleass · 29/03/2020 21:58

Cauliflower broccoli Brussels spinach cabbage all create horrendous wind for me

LakieLady · 29/03/2020 21:59

Chilli, vegetables of the brassica group and (sometimes, but not always) eggs.

Eggy farts are the worst.

LizziesTwin · 29/03/2020 21:59

Artichokes, celeriac, cabbage, cauliflower, Brussels sprouts, pulses. All the normal things.

IHaveBrilloHair · 29/03/2020 21:59

Sweetcorn, I just dont eat it anymore.

Foghead · 29/03/2020 21:59

I eat lentils, beans and even sprouts and have no issues whatsoever but I cannot eat cauliflower without getting horrendous indigestion and wind.
What’s that about?

MargotMouse · 29/03/2020 21:59

Courgettes and Quorn!

1Morewineplease · 29/03/2020 21:59

@Cherrysoup
It’s not for no reason that they’re called ‘fartichokes.’

stairway · 29/03/2020 21:59

Bananas for me too though I can eat them cooked.

LakieLady · 29/03/2020 22:00

Oh, and beer, especially real ale. Even more especially, Marston's Pedigree.

ALongHardWinter · 29/03/2020 22:00

The obvious one,baked beans,as well as onions (raw or cooked) peas,Brussels sprouts and wholemeal bread.

limpbizkit · 29/03/2020 22:01

Cucumber and porridge. Foul smelling wind that just comes out without me trying! Blush

Kazziek · 29/03/2020 22:01

Bread, which I love but omg the results are horrific. And broccoli

Mollypolly2610 · 29/03/2020 22:01

Cabbage and dried apricots (not on the same plate)

AhoyMrBeaver · 29/03/2020 22:01

Quorn. I used to be ok with it and ate it fairly often, but now I'm doubled up with wind the day after eating it.

I made spiced, roasted root vegetable soup last night and I had to deflate before I could comfortably sit up in bed this morning 😳

Rubyupbeat · 29/03/2020 22:02

Stuffing
Sweetcorn

Bunnylady54 · 29/03/2020 22:03

Laughing more than I should at “ fartichokes” 😂🤣😂

MagnoliatheMagnificent · 29/03/2020 22:04

Edamame beans - ouch!

minipie · 29/03/2020 22:04

Not sure for me (Although yes to jerusalem artichokes) but for DH it’s lentils and ale. Dear god it’s like something’s died in there.

GalactiCat · 29/03/2020 22:04

Fish from the chippy. Roast potatoes . Basically anything cooked in oil.

Bakingbaking · 29/03/2020 22:05

Quorn and supermarket meatfree substitute mince. Never again!

STAYTHEFUCKHOME · 29/03/2020 22:06

Bread and cheese/milk.

Which is a pain, because I love nothing more than cheese on toast and a latte.

Cheapprimarkbra · 29/03/2020 22:06

On my first romantic night out away with my DP, we went for a meal and stayed at a lovely posh, boutique hotel in London. In the middle of the night I was suddenly awake in absolute agony and I had to run to the toilet and crouch on the floor with my butt in the air to try and force some of the wind out of me, so that I could continue in bed with him, fart free!! That was after an oniony main course....
