Does anybody else get the worst gas after eating pheasant?

It's so bad. I wouldn't be surprised if our local Spotted page is full of people moaning about fireworks noise after tonight.

I’ve never tried pheasant so I can’t say but 😂😂😂😂 at this thread!

SunshineOutdoors · 02/01/2021 21:43

Yes we had game pie on Christmas Eve and it was awful

CoolKitkat · 02/01/2021 21:44

Yes, had to click to check if the title was a mistake (ie should have been 'Pleasant farts') Grin

JumpLeadsForTwo · 02/01/2021 21:45

I've only tried it once and can't remember. I do however love Jerusalem artichokes and they only have a short season here so I tend to go a bit mad - I can definitely join you this evening in firework production!!

I was wondering what your local pheasants had been eating for you to hear their farts. Grin

Eating too much meat and 4ich good tends to set me off. Not specifically pheasant but just meet in general.

TwirlingTwizzler · 02/01/2021 21:46

I dislike pheasant as much as I dislike venison. Neither give me wind 😂

TroysMammy · 02/01/2021 21:46

I made game pie yesterday and had it again today, both times with sprouts. I'll update tomorrow Grin

fairydustandpixies · 02/01/2021 21:47

I don't know about pheasant but I have eaten a bag of sprouts all by myself this evening...no, don't ask why because I don't have the answer!! I suspect the roof of this humble home will be rattling in a couple of hours! 😂

Greenbks · 02/01/2021 21:48

Stop eating them then! 😂

Why, are live ones tastier?
Eggsley · 02/01/2021 21:56

I find kidney beans have a similar effect Blush

LakieLady · 02/01/2021 21:56

I always get very farty whenever I go to MILs.

I think there's something especially fart-inducing in Croydon water.

22Giraffes · 02/01/2021 21:57

I read the title as Pleasant Farts BlushGrin

redcandlelight · 02/01/2021 21:58

that will save some heating cost :o

Cauliflower has this effect on me. I sometimes shock the cat.

Well, they aren't un pleasant.

Quite satisfying when you let a big'un off.

I am letting them off privately I hasten to add.

I seriously clicked on this to work out how the hell you could hear pheasants fart.

MooseBeTimeForSummer · 02/01/2021 22:02

And me! And cous cous and sprouts!
rossogingerale · 02/01/2021 22:13

Quorn makes me fart like a trooper.

redcandlelight · 02/01/2021 22:14

oh yes, dried apricots in my porridge ensure an empty train carriage for the morning commute.

Oooohbehave · 02/01/2021 22:17

No. But I find swan gives me terrible gasGrin

tillyandmilly · 02/01/2021 22:18

Yabu again for eating pheasants! - disgusting

Silent but violent, or loud and proud?
