That's not true. I know very few meat eaters who don't like falafel (and many of those who don't are picky eaters and hate anything that isn't mac and cheese). I get falafel and meat about equally; falafel doesn't

In civil court, you basically have to prove that it was more likely than not the gas. That's really hard to do for chronic symptoms. Are you sure you didn't hit your head at some point? Does anyone in your family have any histo
