I think mainly our bodies need to get used to eating beans, the more
we eat them the less gassy we are digesting them. I hadn't cooked
beans in a few months and made a lentil stew the other night. Hubby
said it gave him gas that night. Lentils, really? They didn't bother
me in the slightest.

Avoid cutting yourself when slicing vegetables by getting someone else to hold them.

Beans never make me gassy. Cabbage will. And we won't talk about eggs!
