Do People from Hispanic countries fart a lot cause of all the beans consumed daily?

[Anonymous]

That must be a common thing, how can you eat so many beans without passing so much gas?

[Anonymous]

I know how the song goes but I always thought it was a joke. Do beans make you fart? I eat them and never noticed a difference. I never even believed people fart between 15 to 25 times a day. I must be farting 15 to 25 times during my sleep because unless I'm using a public toilet I rarely fart knowingly. BTW public toilet thing, while amusing, is not intentional.

[xHoneyxBeex]

It's funny how upset some people are about this question. Lol It's just a question people. I laughed.

I've never really thought about it before though. I hate beans so I never eat them and I'm also never very gassy. I don't know many Hispanics though so I have no idea how gassy they are. Haha

[Anonymous]

Lol I never thought about this :P

[Asker]

:D

[CasaNorba]

whoa! are you Hispanic yourself? cause you must be around Hispanic people 24/7 if you know how much we fart. and are you actually always aware of people farting?

[Flamingo117]

Do American people fart a lot because they're so fat and look gassy all the time?

[Anonymous]

I spent a few weeks in Mexico on a diet heavy in beans and I was farting non stop. I noticed all of the women in the family I stayed with farted too. So basically the women (especially teenage girls and young women) fart and the men don’t. It’s kind of like everywhere else in the world.

[peace-love-couture]

Depending on what part of Latin America a person is from, they may not eat beans...

And no. I grew up eating beans so I don't get bloated or gassy when I eat them

[Moloch]

I don't even remember the last time I had beans

[BriNicoleeeeee]

Thank you!!

[sexslave_keeper]

I DON'T believe it.

[Cuddle_Muffin]

What made this offensive was the word "Hispanics".

perhaps if you worded things differently. It would have been funny not ignorant.

like, for example.

"When people eat beans on a daily basis do they fart alot?"

and then you could say in the description box... "is it possible people eventually get immune from farting?"

[Asker]

check the update and you'll see how wrong you are

[Cuddle_Muffin]

Irrelevant.

[Asker]

umm no its very relevant, you just can't see it

[BriNicoleeeeee]

It's not offensive. Im wondering the same sh*t. Do mexicans, puerto ricans etc, fart after eating beans all day or are they immune to them? Why because other cultures may not eat as many beans on a daily or ever, and when they first start to , they begin farting uncontrollably. Sheesh. Shut up and answer the question

[ktlr33]

All of my friends are Mexican, and I have to say that even after being friends for 9 years i’ve never heard any of the ten girls fart. My mexican boyfriend however is a different story… I would say he farts more than the average person, but I think it comes down to politeness.

[lauramor]

Do you fart with all hamburgers that you eat old fart?

[Greekbitttch22]

Lol.

[Anonymous]

I was friends with a Hispanic girl, when I went to her house I didn't hear/smell any farts, but they were very kind and welcoming, they seemed to be a lot closer and happier than my family (white).

[Greekbitttch22]

I agree i love hispanic family and culture because they are so much closer even with strangers who are hispanic its like they all havethis culture

[cun7n1nja]

Boiling your beans with baking soda seems to help prevent a good portion of the gas issue, lol.

[BriNicoleeeeee]

Thank you

[QueenBeatris]

u must eat a lot of beans ,u are blowing a lot of hot stinky air

[Anonymous]

I don't know. I think different things make different people gassy. I've never had an issue with beans, but I've always had to steer clear of pears if I don't want gas. Not sure why.

[cupid101]

Hahahahaha this made me laugh... ha ha what a question... ha

[abundantlyrich]

and people who eat too much hot and spicy food too... and not actually from Hispanic regions.

[Anonymous]

seems like a lot of people are in denial. it's a scientific fact that increased consumption of certain foods equals an increase in flatulence. you can't become immune or build up a tolerance. it's how the body processes those foods.

[toulouse]

false.

you precisely can become accustomed. this is why if you are not used to eating much fiber they tell yo to increase it slowly to avoid farting alot. til your system acclimates.

[Opinion Owner]

i know about that and no it's not the same thing. it's not just the fiber content.

[Hoshi-Reed]

@toulouse
True. But it is more complicated then that. HOW the beans are cooked matters. Same with the OTHER items in the diet.
Too much sugar and refined or processed foods make the body support certain types of intestinal flora (bacteria).
Beans can be processed better if cooked properly and the body has certain types of bacteria to break the sub-conjugates down.
So the idea of build up a tolerance is more a case of build up that type of bacteria in your intestines. Which won't happen if your diet also consisted of high levels of processed foods and refined sugars.

[unighted]

ok, I don't know if you notice it but you sound really ignorant by asking this,

[Asker]

are you saying Hispanics don't eat lots of beans?

[unighted]

We eat way more of other things, for eaxmple in Mexico we eat way more corn than beans. What you said is like saying is there any other food in usa besides fast food? you obviously eat way more things than fast food

[Asker]

i did not imply Mexicans ONLY eat beans, but a majority of their food contains lots of beans, and lots of them do eat them.

And even with fast food, lots of people in the US do eat it.

[Asker]

'You could say that corn and beans are the two main foods of indiginous Mexicans, and much of Mexican cuisine is based on these two ingredients. '

link

[unighted]

you should really look things up dude, you know nothing about Mexican food if you really thing the majority of our food contain beans, and you know nothing about other Hispanic food, so just stop

[Asker]

'Mexicans eat a lot of beans'

link

[Asker]

i am looking things up. and guess what, many of them say beans are a major ingredient in your foods lol

[Asker]

'Beans (legumes) are a large part of the Hispanic food culture. A good example of the importance and use of this food can be seen in the consumption of beans by Mexican Americans. This group of people eat approximately 34 pounds of beans per capita. This seems to be an especially large amount when compared to the average non-Hispanic American who consumes only six pounds per capita.'

link

[unighted]

why don't you look up something that an actual Mexican wrote? and something that really talks about how Mexicans eat NOW, not in the past...

[Asker]

very well then. Sylvia the author of that last link:

'An expert in cross-cultural Hispanic cuisine, Sylvia is a Hispanic native who speaks both English and Spanish fluently. She is founder and principal of Hispanic Food Communications.'

link

[unighted]

you could also read these articles:

link

link

and say why aren't all Americans fat if they eat way to much fast food?

what you have shown says nothing of it,

i never said we don't eat beans, I said we eat way more about other things than beans

[Asker]

but many Americans are not only fat but obese "More than one-third of U.S. adults (35.7%) are obese"

link

And I never implied ALL Hispanics have gas problems

[unighted]

ok yeah, I am going to stop talking to you because you don't get where you are wrong

[Asker]

lol. yeah I prove you wrong and that's all you got eh?

[unighted]

Um, no. Even If you found online that Mexican or Hispanics eat a lot of beans you are not taking into account all the other things that Hispanic people eat. You don't talk about the consumption of other things that Hispanics eat and making a comparison based on that. People all around the world eat things that give them wind. How you asked the question sounded like people in other countries didn't eat things that make them fart, and that Hispanic people eat a lot of beans.

[Asker]

blah blah blah. sore loser

[lauramor]

Im sorry but she has better arguments

[Anonymous]

Beans are high in fiber. Fiber is good for the digestive system.

This is a dumb question.

[BriNicoleeeeee]

Not the answer we are looking for

[Anonymous]

This is a stupid question and a lame troll attempt.

*eye roll*

[Anonymous]

Hispanic countries don't necissarily eat a lot of beans.

[Moloch]

LOL you must be white.

[peace-love-couture]

Obviously...

white people are sensitive to beans and anything with spice

that's why they love hamburger helper

[Moloch]

LOL I thought they loved baked potatoes and hotpockets.

[Cuddle_Muffin]

Lol.

[RedSmartie]

So it's okay for you to be racist, but not for the asker to ask a race-specific question? Reallly? wtf

[Moloch]

His question was wrong from the beginning because not all Hispanic countries eat beans. He used statistical evidence about Mexican Americans to make a generalization of all Hispanics. In not being racist, I'm merely pointing out how ignorant that question was by saying what I said. This question was so hilariously ridiculous that I told my my neighbor and he was laughing his ass off.

[Anonymous]

Their bodies are used to it

lolol definitely the best white dancer ever!
