Can I just say store brand alfredo, satisfying as it is, really gets you gassy as ****?

Like Jesus H Christ my farts right now smell like DEATH.

That would make a neat sub-thread. Which foods give you the most gas.

One thing I never knew, mixing sour cream in the batter will give you moist, chewy brownies.

I've heard of certain cake recipes including sour cream as an ingredient for one reason or another; Henry Blake raves about his wife's, "sour cream and chocolate job that you could take intravenously."

I'll agree that eggs do give me some rather smelly farts, but it seems like the only time I ever get really bad gas (and I mean the kind where your underbelly is cramping something awful and you find yourself trying to force yourself to fart just for some relief) is if I eat something that has some rather heavy red meat or a lot of cheese (like a casserole, for example).

Sounds just like me when I went to see Ringo Starr live in Boston with my mom in September of 2018. I had a pepperoni pizza slice for dinner and I woke up with some PAINFUL gas the next morning. It felt like absolute medicine when I released it.

Lettuce

Avoid Romaine as much as possible; it gets recalled a lot for things like E. coli, salmonella, and my mom even got food poisoning from it once.

When I was a kid, I always prefered the cheese ones over the peanut butter ones, simply because given the choice or preference, I like cheese a little more than peanut butter.

As an adult, however, I actually find the peanut butters make for a much better tasting combination with the Ritz crackers than the cheese does.

Either way, this was such a memorable commercial from my childhood.

I found something out years ago.
I’m a big fan of Chunky Beef soup. Ritz crackers go perfect. The beef broth really brings out the buttery taste of the crackers.
A perfect match.

Chunky beef soup another name for beef stew, or is there a difference?

Had Burger King's Ch'King (Spicy) today and it's basically the SAME Crispy Chicken sandwich from Popeye's. Nothing special.
