In Ruth Lawrence, MD's book BF: A Guide for the Medical Profession, 2000,
p. 326-27,  she states that "Garlic and onions may cause colic in some
infants. Cabbage, turnips, broccoli, or beans may also bother others,
making them colicky for 24 hours. The same has been said of rhubarb,
apricots, and prunes. If a mother questions the effect of a food, she
should avoid it or document its effect carefully by watching for colic in
the 24
hours following ingestion."

This is the closest statement I can find...and it is a range.
