Why do we fart?!


Question:
Answers:
If we didn't, we'd probably explode.

Other Answers:
The digestion process produces gas as a byproduct. It has to go somewhere.
'cause if we didn't we'd explode.no seriously the real reason is because of bacteria, the bacteria in our intestines feed on the tough fibre in the fruit, vegetables, seeds, nuts, peas, beans, and whole grains we eat. Now it's not wholly a one sided agreement, when these bacteria break down all the fibre we've eaten they produce vitamin K as a byproduct which we can't (as far as I know.) get anywhere else, and methane gas is their other byproduct, and methane is fart gas! So if you have a hot date lined up watch the amount fibre you eat or you better learn to play solitaire!
