Have You Tried the Viral Trend . . . “Fart Salad”?

Some people flat-out refuse to eat salad . . . at least the cold lettuce, tomato, cucumber kind.  But would you make an exception for macaroni salad . . . potato salad . . . fruit salad . . . or fart salad?

Yeah, you heard that right.  There’s a trend on TikTok of FART SALADS, which are connected to the trend of “maxxing” everything . . . in this case, fiber.

There’s no ONE recipe for a fart salad, but the signature ingredient seems to be “cruciferous vegetables,” like broccoli, cabbage, or Brussels sprouts.  Some even use a packaged coleslaw mix.  That’s the main gassy, fiber part.

Fart salads don’t have to be SUPER healthy.  You can use pasta, cheese, pepperoni, onion, seasoning, and dressing.

If you want a high-fiber fart salad that’s healthier, you can sub-out the pasta, processed meats, jarred salad dressing, and cheese.

Instead, you could add more fresh veggies, beans (which would make it EXTRA farty), and a lean meat like chicken or tuna.  And a whole grain base like quinoa or wild rice, rather than pasta.

It depends.  Some people don’t want salad unless it’s HEALTHY.  Others don’t want salad unless it’s, well, SOMEWHAT EDIBLE.
