    cabbage can make you bloaty and gassy. don't eat so much! or broccoli/cauli. that will do it too.

    Any herbal tea of the mint/peppermint varieties will help... drink plenty of water to flush the excess sulfur that has collected.

    Or, warn your loved one that if they get you mad one more time......lol!!!

    Same thing happened to me last night but from eating two Atkins peanut butter cups. I took these w me for a movie treat. I had no idea it would be that bad. Maybe they slipped some cabbage in ;)
