Looking for a place to relieve yourself after consuming that 9-grain, whole wheat seven-bean and lentil wrap complete with kale?

Head over to one of the many “fart patios” the raw vegan restaurants in Portlandia offer.

In another hilarious skit from the IFC comedy, visitors to the Prassad Cafe need not offend other guests with the gas that naturally comes after a healthy meal as the fart patio provides a way to let nature take its course without taking away everyone’s appetite.

If you’re visiting a vegan cafe that doesn’t have a built-in fart patio, may Vegetarian Star suggest you pack the vegetarian alternative to the gelatin containing Beano, Bean-zyme.

“It’s always difficult for people to deal with images of animal cruelty head-on; no one wants to look at what really goes into the making of fur. This video is so impactful because it lets you know without having to see.”
