Does chinese food cause a lot of gas?

Question

A few hours ago I had some take out. I had two egg rolls and some fried rice. Now I have a LOT of gas. Lol.Sorry if this is gross.

Answer 1

Let's hope not because I just had chinese for dinner.

Answer 2

It usually just causes diarrhea in me within about 1-2 hours. Better than ex-lax. Then it's time for sushi.

Answer 3

2 egg rolls and fried rice? Definitely not! Must be the build up from other stuff in your system.

Answer 4

then it must cause alot of gas

Answer 5

Cabbage causes gas whether it is Chinese or Mexican or American...Egg rolls are fried foods which are hard to digest AND they contain cabbage as a main ingredient...6 to 1 broccoli gives you gas, too...same family. I thought everyone knew this but it seems a lot of people in the food Answers section just make stuff up as they go along...

Answer 6

Of course not and MSG doesn't cause flatulence either. Authentic egg rolls (shanghai as they called) were made with pure ground pork and some ingredients. The size of the egg roll in the authentic Chinese cuisine is about the size of one's thumb and no bigger than that.

Commercialized egg rolls substitute their ingredients with cabbages because its much cheaper and it means more profit.

Answer 7

Yes.  it has MSG in it
