I don't know if anyone has already said this but being able to smell that odor is a dominant genetic trait. Some people can't smell it. Fun fact.

yes why is that?

What amazes me about the asparagus pee smell is how quickly I can smell it after eating. I'm talking like 20 minutes later. Whatever it is, it moves quickly through my system.

And how is that ?

When I was about 10, my mom and I would go asparagus picking in my dad's old 40's hunting jeep. She would put it in low range and idle along the fence row while I cut the asparagus. That part was fun. What wasn't fun was when she insisted on cooking the plants in one of those old pressure cookers with the little weight on top. When it was done it smelled like hell and had the consistancy of green sheetrock spackle...which was a much better usage for it than eating that nasty slop. Because of that, I've probably only had 10 bites of asparagus since the 60's. Uck...but enjoy the scent!

Lol!! I love asparagus never had that problem but have heard about it.

Asparagusic acid.

There has been a lot of scientific debate on if this is actually true.

Of course, the whole asparagus-urine scent issue is complicated by an entire separate issue: Some people simply don’t smell anything different when urinate after they eat asparagus. Scientists have long been divided into two camps in explaining this issue. Some believe that, for physiological reasons, these people (which constitute anywhere from 20 to 40 percent of the population) don’t produce the aroma in their urine when they digest asparagus, while others think that they produce the exact same scent, but somehow lack the ability to smell it.

T.m.i.

LOL asparagus.

Yep. I had some on the grill with olive oil once. I wanted to run out of the bathroom! Brussle sprouts do the same.

That is a bit kinky.

You smell your pee??????

I thot the asparagus pee smell thing happened only to men.

Promise I will never smell your pee ! Scouts honour !

I have heard that.
Personally I can't stand the stuff.
I chow down on lots of pineapple though.
Doesn't have that effect, but much nicer than asparagus.

LOL thank you for sharing
