I've eaten lots of things in my life. I'm vegetarian now and I'm often eating 30+ different plants in a day. My experience is any "new" food or a big change in ratios/quantity of a food has the potential for flatulence. The worst gas I got was when I upped my protein to ridiculous quantities for the bodybuilding hobby. I eat beans all the time and they don't cause me any problems at all. But occasionally some vegetable will cause me excessive flatulence. It's part of vegetarian life really. Stick around any herbivores long enough and you'll know about their farts.
