But I only whispered that, you hear!!<BR/><BR/>One thing I've learned is that if you boil sprouts with a liberal dose of bicarbonate of soda, it lessens the fart potential. But i can't say I've tried them enough to say whether it fully works or not.Alhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03307764579407047231noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10388715.post-1118221712335117812005-06-08T10:08:00.000+01:002005-06-08T10:08:00.000+01:00Now then!

And also, as a new zealand friend would say, it goes well with egg for a kiwi-style burger arrangement?!? But sprouts, as you say are indeed pestilence, and a blight on the good old christmas dinner.Alhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03307764579407047231noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10388715.post-1118077019775485602005-06-06T17:56:00.000+01:002005-06-06T17:56:00.000+01:00Congratulations on getting your plot fully operati...Congratulations on getting your plot fully operational.<BR/><BR/>Sprouts, along with beetroot, are crimes against evolution.
