I agree with Fen on this one; I've found that when a food bothers me, I usually feel the effects of it 6-8 hours later. This used to be my rough time of day (~3-4pm), then I realized it was the oatmeal I was eating for breakfast every day. I long ago replaced that with a smoothie, and that made a world of difference.
Another piece of advice: eat small portions. Large portions always cause me to have gas and bloating. Your digestive system gets less and less "efficient" as the day goes on, so you especially need to eat less later in the day. Make dinner your smallest meal, if possible.
