Is it possible to eat in such a way that you'll never have to fart?

If not, then what about rarely instead of never?

Neat fact: Late in WWII, Germany deployed a rocket fighter. This rocket could climb to 12K in a three minuets. Consequently, the pilots had to eat a special low fiber diet to prevent gas because the change in pressure caused severe intestinal distress.

Of course that was the least of the pilot's problems. The Me163 was so crazy dangerous it made OceanGate look as safe as the Bank of England.

This is precisely the answer I was looking for, though I didn't know it when I asked. Thank you!

There you go, lots of processed grains and low fiber proteins

could climb to 12K in a three minuets

a traditional minuet is ~4 minutes long, assuming meters, that would be roughly 2400 Km/h average speed

You're just saying that because part of the fuel mixture would burst into flames when it came into contact with pretty much anything organic and had to he kept in aluminum containers because it would eat its way out of anything else.

And don't forget that the other part of the fuel mixture would also burst into flames when it came on contact with pretty much anything organic and had to be kept in glass containers because it would eat through aluminum.
