Caramels!

I figured out the reason for the mysterious and frustrating gassy night from last week:

Brach's caramels!

I had two of them in the middle of the day, and I didn't take a Lactaid pill with them. You never think of candy having a significant amount of Lactose in it, but these caramels have milk listed as the third ingredient. And their full name should have been a clue: Brach's Milk Maid Caramels.

Oops.

Well, as my husband observed, now we know that the worst thing that happens when I have some lactose is an evening of gas. Meaning, I didn't have a flare.

So, I am much encouraged.
