yeah. that and if you put a lot of spicy fatty meats
and such in them then you get more noticeable gas. i
like them fairly plain most of the time so we're ok.
once in a while i put cheese, hot sauce and onions on
them for a change of pace. to us they are filler and
fiber, we use a lot of them in salads.
