Hi there,

I have sort of a strange question about passing gas. Usually passing gas would be offensive smelling and sometimes mine is. But other times my gas smells of the food I ate. For example: peanut butter. There are other foods that do the same thing. I don't think a list is necessary, just an answer from someone out there to tell me if this is something to talk with my doctor about.

Thanks for your response,

olson :wave:

I can't really answer your question...but wanted to let you know you aren't the only one...I'm a lacto-ovo vegetarian...and I have IBS...and get a LOT of gas (mostly from all the veg I eat) and mine have a tendency to smell like the vegetables I've eaten...Like asparagus...or even something as odd as spinach or beets...It's really odd...but I don't know if it is something to be concerned about...I hope someone else can answer your question!
