Absolutely! Dave Barry wrote an article devoted to Beano years ago. I
thought it was sprinkled (or poured?) on the food though, not taken with your
first bite? I have no idea, as I agree with Rockin' Randy about not tampering
with mother nature. Besides, if I started using it, I'd be down to only one
hobby (the chiles), and I wouldn't get those wonderful looks of disgust from
the wife that I have grown so fond of.
Down with Beano!!! Given proper ventilation, of course.
