Actually, Beano totally works on me--thank Goodness. It's weird, though...carrots & orange foods & potatoes & wheat or oats or soy would give me the most intolerable gas attack--even with Beano. A slippery banana fart--now that's asking for trouble. I don't get it, but truly, if I was still smoking I couldn't stand the pain of tarry farts. Potatoes give me the most bulky farts. I literally smell like a french fry.
However, I totally respect your sensitivity with certain foods.
