Does anyone else think B.O. and onions smell oddly similar?

Yes. Sometimes I describe my armpits as smelling like a sandwich.

Then I shower, because smelling like food is rarely acceptable around people.

not at all. I love the smell of onions. I do not love the smell of B.O.

Yes I think they do and I think our body odors change according to what we eat!

My body odor smells exquisite. Onions make me cry.

It’s the sulfur.

Could you explain that, Taco?

When cut, onions release a mix of compounds, including a gas that, when it comes into contact with the moisture in your eyes, converts to (a mild) sulfuric acid.

Sweat can also contain a mix of these same compounds, although not nearly as strong (typically) as onions.

Interesting

I didn’t before, but now I have another reason to hate onions even more.

My armpits smell like turnip greens.
