I was just curious, because every time I eat something with balsamic vinegar, my pee smells funny.  Like, really bad.  No other foodstuff has this effect on me.

So, I was just curious if I was solitary in this affliction.

Hef is right on all things. Except for when I disagree with him. In which case he's probably still right.

I have yet to care enough to correlate the smell of my pee with any particular part of my diet. Pee smells like pee.

Yep. I think the only party in the MP/DT situation that hasn't moved on is DTF.

When standing at a urinal.

Pee smells like pee.
Yes, under normal circumstances.  But these circumstances are far from normal, I assure you.

As plenty of women will attest to, what goes in effects how things come out.  There's actually a long list of things not to eat on dates, lest your next blowjob be your last. 

I've never heard of vinegar being an issue, but I think everybody metabolizes things differently.  I suppose it could also be your sense of smell just picks up on that more than anything else; who knows?

Rarely can I 'smell' my pee as I'm taking a leak, and the only time(s) I can remember are when I've eaten asparagus recently, of course. Other than that, I can't recall ever being able to smell it at all unless I'm in at a urinal, in which case it's just smelled like piss.

I've always heard that about asparagus but not about salad dressing.

My piss gets a weird smell to it whenever I drink anything coffee related. Not sure what's in the coffee causing it, but it's pretty weird.

Might as well go for broke and marinate the asparagus in balsamic before grilling. :xbones

I was just coming to post this.  As a chemist, I have to admit it doesn't really bother me because I've smelled all these chemicals in much higher concentration that what is is asparagus pee.  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Asparagus#Urine_effects

The mystery may be solved.  I very rarely eat asparagus, but I ate it today.  With balsamic vinegar.

I think it was in my meal the last time I had balsamic, as well.

It could, in hindsight, have been the asparagus.

Most likely the asparagus, I've never heard of balsamic vinegar making pee smell funny.
Everyone else, except Wolfking is wrong.

FTFY.  Also, this thread should be renamed: "Aspargus makes you pee smell funny"

You pee.


Smell funny.

 :police:

I hate it when people do that to me. Like, the three times I've made a typo in my time here (I think the two people who corrected me were Windy and Numbers actually...HMMMM) and I'm all 'what a dick'. So now I felt like being a dick to make up for my eunuch-ness.

I've heard about that before but I hardly ever eat asparagus.  My GF has some in her fridge and I think she had some yesterday, but I didn't smell her pee.  :neverusethis:

Asparagus does sometimes but not always. If you ask my 3.5 year old nephew what asparagus does he tells you "IT MAKES YOUR PEE SMELL."

This applies to a woman's taste/scent as well :D

As the Wiki page said, everybody produces the substance after eating, but only 20% of the population can smell it.
