Can one predict what another had eaten by the aroma of his/her flatulence?

Question

I had hot and sour soup and farted in the car. My friend took a guess and said I had Ginger Chicken with rice. He was obviously wrong.

Answer 1

Probably not. Everybody's body metabolizes food in a different way- so I don't think there's going to be much consistancy (let alone regularity) in the aroma of flatulence from one person to the next.

Answer 3

You need to get out from under Wimbledon Common a bit more; these days EVERYTHING gives you cancer. So it's a matter of choosing, do you want to live a long life chewing on oats and leaves, or a shorter life eating what you like? The latter? Yep, me too. And you probably get enough exercise picking litter up off the Common, so at least you won't be too unhealthy.

Answer 4

this is a true story...
once i was bringing a friend to pick up his son at school who was in the second grade.
on the way home i let out a silent but stinky one.
my friend takes a whif and says to his kid...did you have salami for lunch?
the kid goes no...i had peanut butter and jelly...
my friend takes the kids lunch box and sniffs it and says..yeah it smells like p&j.
but i still smell salami he says.
i couldn't help it anymore i started laughing and told him i had farted.
he looked at me and said....
dude! your farts are making me hungry!
we all laughed so hard I had to pull the car over to the side of the road!
he was right on the money because earlier i had eaten an italian sub with ham and salami....LOLOLOL
and also i swear to god when i eat at dennys my farts smell just like a grand slam breakfast with coffee!!!
