I like to think it has more to do with the dried or dehydrated foods suddenly becoming rehydrated causing a mix of bacterial bloom within the previously barren food and difficulty digesting/passing the food resulting in the carbohydrate fermentation and flatulence as a means of pushing it through, but idk I’m not a butt engineer.

I soak all my own beans and I don’t have the issue. As someone else said, it may have to do with our individual gut flora or something.
I heard, from John Ralston Saul of all people, that the trick is to change the water.
I’ve heard the same thing. I always drain and rinse my beans well, and I never have any complaints of gassiness.
