Since the beginning of time, philosophers have wondered about the nature of God. But what about the nature of gas? It’s got to be somewhat individual; everyone has their own genetic palette of intestinal rumblers. Maybe I’m genetically predisposed to high sulfur exports when I eat pan-seared kielbasa, potatoes and onions. Potato-leek soup doesn’t cause me to clear out the room, but I hear that can be a real kicker. There are the legendary combinations that seem to span quite nicely across the landscape of human digestion. I’d nominate any combination of salsa and beans. What’s that? You weren’t listening? Well, then, I heartily recommend the week-old shrimp scampi with a sprinkling of society’s crumbling foundations on top.
