I see lots of messages extolling beans and providing recipes, but I can't eat them without having lots of really bad gas attacks. My husband says I'm asphyxiating him. Someone has suggested eating seaweed and someone else suggested caraway and fennel, but I don't know how much of these to eat. Do you eat these before or after or with the beans? Any other suggestions? I get the same reaction from mung beans, red beans, pinto beans, and garbanzo beans. I like to cook up a batch and then eat for lunch with some other vegetables and a small serving (maybe 2-3 oz) of steamed mackeral. Very satisfying, holds me until dinner, low in cholesterol, and high in omega 3 fatty acids.
