A company is now selling "flatulence filtering" underwear - that is, underwear that will absorb your farts.
Shreddies underwear has been around for awhile, but today we've learned of the odor-stopping wonder thanks to Geek.com. Shreddies are made special by their "Zorflex" activated carbon panels, which trap and neutralise the scent of a fart. (Alas, the sound will remain.)
Admittedly, they're not perfect. Shreddies recommends a specific farting stance to ensure proper neutralisation of the odor - no slouching! Legs should be held close together, and the wearer should ensure their underwear fits well so that nothing escapes through gaps in the waistband or leg openings. Shreddies also has some pretty stringent laundry care requirements: the magical underpants can only be washed with soda crystals.
Prices start at £19 (about $30 USD) for a pair of women's wind-resistant briefs, or £24 ($38 USD) for a pair of men's. For those wanting optimal coverage, Shreddies also offers fart-squashing pyjamas, jeans, and even an underwear line for sufferers of incontinence.
What do you think, readers - are Shreddies worth the price for concealing your butt-sneeze?
