    Last night, the wife made up some really great Black Bean dip. I'll admit, I probably had a little more than my share of it. It was that good! But today at work, I am regretting it, big time! I work in an office with lot's of women. This really sucks! So I tried some Beano, to help alleviate the pressure in my gut. DONT"T EVER DO THIS!!!!! My stomach is making more noises than a close by Freight Train going over 100 mph would make. Holy Snikeys! So of course I am getting some looks from my office babes. You can only blame the squeaky chair so many times if you get my meaning. I thought this stuff was suppose to help with gas pain? WTF? :mad::mad::mad:!!!

    Bah! Quit you're worrying! You're married for God's sake! ;) :lol:

    Oh, and aren't you supposed to take Beano before you eat the "problem" foods?

    But I still gotta save face with the babes, either way. Once your on the loser list, you don't get all of the office goodies that they will make when they think your Mr. Wonderful. Trust me, I ALWAYS think with my stomach!:D - Long Live Homer!

    Haha, I saw the title and thought it was going to be a horror story about how you took too much and had laxative-like symptoms... like explosive diarrhea :)

    AFAIK, you take Beano before you eat beans or other gas inducing foods. And it only stops you from farting, not from the stomach pains that go along with gas -- at least, that's been my limited experience with it.

    The only Beano I know is a comic book. As far as I know, it doesn't give you wind.

    Beno doesn't work for me. I am a man, and men were designed to fart! I'm not talking about a little *puff* here or there...no, I'm talking about a window shaking, gut busting, explosion of sound that's worthy of bragging rights! Just make sure you have an escappe route lined up..... :p

    She would never read it, she doesn't game and would never check out this site. Hence my small concerns of a butcher knife coming my way while sleeping. :D

    ---------- Added 0 hours, 3 minutes and 26 seconds later... ----------

    I wish that could be the case, but I work in the Legal Department of a fortune 500 company. That would be considered so, so not right. But i wish i could do it , just once to see the reactions...:p

    I'm much better today. No dip lat night, as I ate it all the night before, probably the reason of my plight.:D Getting older sucks, that was never a problem a few years ago... Next I'll will catch myself yelling at the neighbor's kids to get off my lawn! Anyone got a time machine handy?

    ---------- Added 2 hours, 31 minutes and 53 seconds later... ----------

    Your probably right, as the bottle indicates to do so. But, unfortunately, I listened to another who swears by taking it after instead of prior to. I now know that's a BIG mistake.
