Beans 'cause farting'
IT'S a "factual reality" that beans make you break wind, South Africa's advertising watchdog says.
A TV advert for sweet onions showed a rugby player eating beans that made him smell "stinky". The advert claims that "with sweet onions there are no tears, no burn and definitely no stink."
The country's Dry Bean Producers Organisation complained about the ad on the basis that the "stinky" charge was untrue but the Advertising Standards Authority threw out the charge and said it was widely known that beans produce gas.
