How do you feel about Farting (or tooting as I like to call it)?

We already have a poop thread going, so I thought it might be nice to discuss another near and dear topic relating to veganism.
I've found mine to vary wildly, from the extremely rare floral aroma, to the rancid roadkill type. I do tend to enjoy it when a significant other toots. ;)
What do you like, or god forbid, dislike about the vegan communities' affinity for flatulence?
As a matter of interest, what food make you have the worst gas, quantity-wise, and quality-wise (smell). This is a question for everyone, I'd like to compare notes.
For me, it's lentils, particularly the green, since the red and yellow split lentils don't have the outer skin.
And parched corn, which leads to pleasant toasty smells...well, pleasant to me, anyway.

Recent experience suggests that eating large quantities of chickpeas leads to chickpea smelling farts. I really cannot say I oppose that smell.
I have to second that chickpeas definitely induce farts for me - my bf has tried to ban me from eating them too often because of this......I just keep eating them though when he's not around >:D
I have been known to drop some bad smelling ones at work - however I work in a hospital, so I can just pretend it's one of the gastro patients! ;)
I call farts "paroops"....haha
sometime last week, my friend told me that my farts smelled like compost and reminded her of her childhood.
those farts remind me of my grandma, for some reason.
flatulence-inducing foods:
- fried/sauteed onions
- chickpeas
- curry-anything
but I love all three... :-\
