[floatl][/floatl]A firm from Fukui City has announced it has developed fart-resistant underwear. Seiren has unveiled a new line with specially treated fibres which can eliminate the odour of broken wind within thirty seconds. "Remove a bad smell boxer briefs" for men are 4,800 yen while "Remove a bad smell shorts" for women are 5,800 yen. You can also buy handkerchiefs, sheets, blankets and shirts but, given the contortions some of these products require, they are recommended for competitive farters only. A spokesman for the company warned that, while they are confident they can deal with the smell of farts, they can do nothing about the sound.
