Smelly and Stinky Stuff!

I’ve just flipped open a book called ‘The Big Book of Boy Stuff’ to the farting page. We here at Wellington City Libraries know you lot love to read about disgusting facts… So here’s the goss on farting:

 

Boys and Girls fart the same amount, but girls hold them in more (to be polite) so theirs are probably bigger!

 

Most people fart about 14 times a day! This is enough to fill a litre milk bottle! If you fart more than this then you must have super powers.

 

If your dog or cat has gas then you aren’t feeding it the right food. Its intestines can’t digest it properly which creates gas.

 

Native Alaskans enjoy a delicious dish called ‘Stinky Tail’. It’s fermented beaver tail, which is made by burying the beaver tail in a pit for weeks or even months! Ewww!

 

Elephants drop huge farts, but they’re usually not too smelly. Turtle farts smell the worst and Donkey farts are the loudest! But the worst farter has to be the termite; they fart constantly all day long!

 

Phooey!
