Was she thrown off the plane because she lit the match or because she cut the cheese?

So now the new terrorist threat is to have a bunch of guys eat large
quantities of beans before flight time. They all sit together and as
nature takes its course, strike a match and blow up the plane.

New screening question -- So, when did you last eat beans?

NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) - An American Airlines flight was forced to make
an emergency landing Monday morning after a passenger lit a match to
disguise the scent of flatulence, authorities said. 
The Dallas-bound flight was diverted to Nashville after several
passengers reported smelling burning sulfur from the matches, said Lynne
Lowrance, spokeswoman for the Nashville International Airport Authority.
All 99 passengers and five crew members were taken off and screened
while the plane was searched and luggage was screened.
The FBI questioned a passenger who admitted she struck the matches in an
attempt to conceal a "body odor," Lowrance said. She had an unspecified
medical condition, authorities said.
"It's humorous in a way but you feel sorry for the individual, as well,"
she said. "It's unusual that someone would go to those measures to cover
it up."
The flight took off again, but the woman was not allowed back on the
plane. The woman, who was not identified, was not charged in the
incident.
