If not, then what about rarely instead of never?

      could climb to 12K in a three minuets

      a traditional minuet is ~4 minutes long, assuming meters, that would be roughly 2400 Km/h average speed

      The Me163 was so crazy dangerous it made OceanGate look as safe as the Bank of England.

      You’re just saying that because part of the fuel mixture would burst into flames when it came into contact with pretty much anything organic and had to he kept in aluminum containers because it would eat its way out of anything else.

      And don’t forget that the other part of the fuel mixture would also burst into flames when it came on contact with pretty much anything organic and had to be kept in glass containers because it would eat through aluminum.

    In short, no. To explain: you have a bunch of beneficial bacteria living inside your digestive tract. These little guys help you digest your food, and in return they get a free meal. This basically means that the food you eat ferments into poo. Fermentation always results in gas being released (think how the plastic wrap on a bowl of dough can puff up as it proves.) So to sum it up, unless you drank a strict water-only diet, anything you eat can give you gas. (Even then, you would probably still naturally swallow some air with the water, and some would make it to the other end as a fart.)

    I can guarantee that if you drank pure petroleum and ate quicklime then you would spend the rest of your life without worrying about farts.

    All I can say is don’t take metformin if you’re worried about farting. Otoh I’ve been reading that it’s something of a wonder drug that extends your life expectancy and quality of life, though perhaps at others’ expense where the latter is concerned…

    Otherwise, I do know of a Japanese folk remedy that involves cooking any bean dish with some kombu–a type of hard dried seaweed not to be confused with the rather faddy kombucha, which I think is made from mushrooms or some kind of yeast? You don’t even have to eat the kombu but toss it aside like a bayleaf, though it is edible. Then again, there is always beano.

    To a certain degree, yes; either burp more, or eat food that is easier to digest.

    If you’re avoiding fast food, pears, beans etc. and you’re still coming across this issue, you may want to check with your doctor and see if you have any digestive issues

        Farts don’t have to smell bad. This is something you can change with diet. In particular, avoiding animal products will help. But if you go completely vegan, then your sweat will smell weird, so it’s a trade-off.

        If you really wanted the best of both worlds, you could get those underwear inserts that hide the smell.

          There’s this mineral you can eat called bismuth subgallate that works as an internal deodorant. It’s sold under the brand name devrom. Haven’t tried it, but heard good things.

            They even have a blanket for similar purposes (fart concealment) and it’s called “the marriage blanket.” Cause farts ruin your marriage, allegedly. Haven’t ruined mine, but what do I know.

    Gut ecology is complex and everyone’s is different and it changes over time and with age and when you have to take antibiotics, etc. There’s no one sure-fire way to just eliminate it.

    My gf almost never farts. She’s given me a complex about it, i stg. She says she trained herself not to by sheer willpower, and in spite of living together for almost 2 years, I’ve only caught her like twice.

      Does she burp a lot instead? Maybe she’s pumping it back up the other way. Kind of like how railguns vs. blasters work lore-wise in EVE Online:

      Consists of two components: a shell of titanium and a core of antimatter atoms suspended in plasma state. Railguns launch the shell directly, while particle blasters pump the plasma into a cyclotron and process the plasma into a bolt that is then fired.
