Great idea!!!

A cork sounds like a brilliantly cheap solution but I don't think any of them would go for it!

Just slip the cork in while they are sleeping!!

Poor guy.....RUN WHILE YOU CAN, the women are armed with corks!

A child who knows that healthwise it is better to let toxins dissipate in the atmosphere than stew in the innards.

Cashews are a big offender for many. I love them but only eat them when I am going to be outside by myself on windy days.

HMMMMMPH
I just lift the covers and spray the offender with air freshner.
He was not impressed.

Funny topic, but I have sympathy for your husband, having had a long standing problem with my digestive track. He's not a pig, he can't help it.

There are many causes for flatulence, one main one is lactose intolerance, do you think that might be an issue? If you don't think that's the cause, don't bother to read the rest of this paragraph. If the cause might potentially be lactose, I recommend "Dairy Care," not Dairy Ease, not Lactaid, but Dairy Care. The others have to be taken with every meal, but Dairy Care is once a day (after the first week, first week is twice a day.) Most lactose intolerance treatments are lactase (the enzyme that digests lactose.) Dairy Care is a form of acidophillus that contains the bacteria that produces latase, which is usually present in everyone's body and its absence is the reason for lactose intolerance. Over time it can actually restore your body and you'll be cured, though that takes a long time. This can have its initial cause from taking antibiotics that permanently kill the original "good" bacteria.

I should mention. His GI tract is just fine. The goofball had very spicy chili for lunch and neglected to give me the standard warning before retiring!!

Froro, get him a nice big bottle of Beano and encourage its faithful use. (Although, if all four males in the house think it's great fun to fart, I doubt he'd be willing to forego that "pleasure" for your sake.)

Good luck!

It's better to fart and bear the shame than not to fart and bear the pain.
