Beans, beans.....

1)Beans, beans, the musical fruit
The more you eat, the more you toot
The more you toot, the better you feel
So we have beans at every meal!

2)Beans, beans, they're good for your heart
The more you eat, the more you fart
The more you fart, the happier/better you feel
So let's eat beans with every meal!

3)Beans, beans, they're good for your heart
The more you eat, the more you fart
The more you fart, the more you eat
The more you sit on the toilet seat!

4)Beans, beans, they give you gas
They make you fart, and burn your ass
The more you eat, the more it hurts
So slow down your eating to stop the squirts!

5)Beans, beans, they're good for your heart
The more you eat the more you fart
The more you fart the better you feel
So eat your beans with every meal!

Boston Baked Beans Recipe

Ingredients:

•Beans, small white, navy or Great Northern -- 1 pound
•Baking soda -- pinch
•Onion, chopped -- 1
•Molasses -- 1/2 cup
•Brown sugar -- 2 tablespoons
•Dry mustard -- 2 teaspoons
•Salt -- 2 teaspoons
•Pepper -- 1 teaspoon
•Salt pork, sliced 1/4-inch thick -- 1/4 pound


Instructions:

1. Add the beans to a large saucepan and add water to cover them by at least 1 inch. Soak the beans overnight, drain and rinse.

2. Preheat oven to 275°F. Cover the beans with fresh water and add a pinch of baking soda. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat.
Reduce heat to low, cover and simmer for 20 minutes, or until the skins of the beans flake when you blow on them. Drain again but do not rinse.

3. Stir the onion, molasses, brown sugar, dry mustard, salt and pepper into the beans. Place half the salt pork slices on the bottom of a deep, 2-quart casserole dish or bean pot. Add the beans and enough water to just barely cover them. Place the remaining salt pork slices on the top of the beans. Cover the casserole or bean pot.

4. Bake the beans for 6 to 8 hours, adding water as needed to keep the beans just barely covered, about every hour or so. Do not stir the beans.

5. Uncover for the last 30 minutes of baking to brown the salt pork and caramelize the top of the beans.
Serve with Boston brown bread.

Guess what's on the menu at my house tomorrow Beans gotta soak overnight

I see no point adding bad-for-you-stuff that also requires you kill an animal, when beans are pert near a perfect food to begin with. Sort of defeats the purpose of eating beans. If all you want is something to taste good, there's always ice cream.

Portion of the farting contest in La Soupe Aux Choux (Cabbage Soup) where their farts call down a UFO from space.

Your posture must be correct now straighten your back as you assume a full lotus position now roll to your left side and begin scarfing the beans like a ravenous bear .Step 2 ride 24 miles on a big wheel up a steep incline singing "get down boogie oogie oogie "


See there was no farting .
