Beans, bean, the musical fruit...

Is this the end of an era? According to the BBC's news website, scientists in Venezuela have invented fart-free beans. What's the point, I ask, if you can't let rip with a "loud but proud," or a "silent but violent," or a "slinky but stinky?"

It just wouldn't be the same to eat sausages, fart-free beans and chips.

Global warming, war, famine, AIDS and corporate embezzlement. And de-gassed beans get research funding. But wait! Maybe beans are contributing to global warming through gas production, fewer tins will lie on the shelves uneaten, and gassy eaters are less likely to get the opportunity to procreate and transfer the AIDS virus. Can't find a cure for corporate shennanigans in this though.

Researchers take note, be creative in your proposals!
