Termites produce more methane than any other living creature on this planet.
Eating vegetables is not necessarily an option for many people.
You don't want to be around me when I eat cabbage.

We just received our first seed catalog of the season. I might try burp-less

There's no such thing a s "burpless" cucumbers. Sourkraut is really bad

every time.

I don't even want to be around when it's being cooked. The smell just
lingers.
