I've never noticed an odor from someone who has been eating cheese, tho'
the smell of cheese can be quite disgusting if you are not eating it.
The lamented Liederkrantz was a prime example. Again, garlic can
disgusting if you are not eating it yourself: a strange "envy" syndrome

I want to re-do my survey submission. "Stink? What stink?" seems
like the right answer to both. Smell is important to food, but then
it leaks back out.

So, then what? Mixes with pheramones? You unconsiously recognise
people who eat like you? Or that strange foriegn stuff, exotic or
threatening.

It would be very interesting to be able to interview a dog about how
he profiled you by just walking by. He probably knows what you ate in
the last few days, when you last changed your sox, if anyone in your
house smokes or has a pet and if the pet in heat.

I probably depends on the cheese. I have noticed it on myself. One time
I was working under the dashboard of my pickup and smelled something
foul and realized it was the Swiss cheese from the sandwich I had from
lunch.

The worse was when I tried Limburger. A friend of mine had been given a
cheese basket and we were sampling it. He popped apiece of Limburger
into his mouth and said it was good and told me to try a piece. I no
sooner had it in my mouth than he had an odd look on his face. I asked
him what was wrong, and when I spoke I could smell it on my breath.
Yech. I was like what I would imagine dog shit would taste like.

I don't know people who eat "stinky" cheese, at least around me, but I
can definitely say I've never noticed a garlic smell come off of skin.
Sometimes an odor (of frying and cigarettes especially) can be hanging
around on clothing, but we're talking about two different things here.

I'd like to know if people are confusing the odor that hangs out in
fabric with what comes from pores or breath.

I used to placework in a public place where people would sit to wait
for a bus - one dame always pulled out what I swear was a pure garlic
sandwich and chomp away. The 'melody' lingered on - for hours.

So, maybe the question is "can you detect it if you eat it too".

Dad used to eat tons of fresh garlic and I could literally smell him
when I entered the room. From a distance of at least 10 ft. However, I
never found it to be very unpleasant. I'm not a garlic hater.

I never met an allium I didn't like.

At last weekend's potluck (to which I contributed my
tofu potatoe salad), a gentleman of European persuasion brought
a sort of spanokapita dish that was loaded with garlic.
There were no compliants, and many people enjoyed it.
It definitely created a garlic radius of several feet.

Garlic, red wine, Bundy Rum........ they're just 3 things that I
remember/experienced that 'leach' out of your skin the next day.

Oy. I've drawn Ethanol blood samples on many a police prisoner where I
used to work. They reeked of alcohol...

I used to prefer fresh garlic, but it's been upsetting my stomach of
late so I've switched to granulated garlic. It's not quite the same but
still has excellent flavor and does not cause me any problems.

I put quite a bit of it in dad's Omelet tonight along with fine chopped
white and shitake mushroom and some fine chopped cooked chicken thigh
meat, and jack cheese along with a little MSG. I'm finding that dad will
eat a little better for me with that last addition.

It enhances flavors quite a bit so I can get him to actually finish a 2
egg Omelet.


It's an interesting additive.

Oi!!

"3 things that I remember/experienced"

:-)


BTW, what's an 'Ethanol blood sample'??

I though a blood sample was just that??

And what alcohol did they reek of?

With your stomach problems, I'd be worried about the hard granules getting
caught somewhere. Isn't that what causes diverticulitis?

Blood sample that was to be tested for Ethanol (drinkable alcohol,
C2H5OH). Either voluntary or with a warrant. Texas recently signed into
law that you had to have a blood alcohol level drawn if you refused a
breathalizer. No choice. The cops will hold you down while it is
collected if you refuse to cooperate.

No, Diverticulites can be complicated by consuming some foods.
I had a Colonoscopy last month. It was totally negative except for some,
well, that belongs off list. <g> But, no polyps, no colon cancer, no
diverticulosis. I take pretty good care of myself on that end. <g>

Your loss. <shrugs> I've only recently started using it and I really
like it. There is no real proof that it causes any harm at all. And it's
naturally present in may foods so I doubt seriously that you are free of
it in the least. <g>

Much the same here, but it has to be done by a Dr.

In your part of the world, what does "Oy" mean??

"# Oi (interjection), a British, New Zealand, Irish, Australian slang
interjection used to get someone's attention, or to express surprise or
disapproval"

Or was yours more an "I know what you mean"?

See, this is what happens in someone who doesn't suffer from 'normal'
human illnesses ;-P

Just like I wouldn't know what a headache is, or what a migraine feels
like.

There was a huge kerfuffel quite a few years back about MSG and the
effects it was having on a lot of people. The whole place went on an MSG
witch-hunt, and just about every restaurant Australia wide (mainly Chinese
though) had to have a sign that said "No NSG used" otherwise no-one would
go and eat there.

I remember having a jar of the stuff in the 70's and 80's, and neither me,
or any of my family/friends ever had any reactions to my food.

Dr.s do not routinely draw blood here. <g> The few times I've watched
them try, it made me cringe. They are usually crappy at it unless
they've had some real practice.

It's Yiddish actually, as in "Oy vey".
It more or less means "you've got to be kidding me".

Nah. A nervous stomach does not always translate into having serious
colon problems. I do have IBS but that tends to be complicated by
stress. I'm currently unemployed so it is making it worse, and I have
some food intolerances, wheat being the main one.

The only time I ever had a migraine was when I had viral meningitis. I
get some headaches, but a good cervical adjustment by the Chiro' usually
takes care of it. :-)

As usual my answers are MCINL to both.
In the first I've never been around anyone
eating stinky cheese except maybe as a kid when my
grandfather occasionally ate limberger cheese. I
don't recall any smell from him, only from the
cheese.

In both questions there was no choice for "Only if
I'm going to kiss the person and I haven't eaten it
myself." Aside from kissing someone I don't think
I've ever noticed a garlic smell on another person
that was offense.

Hmmm? I wouldn't think of any of those as "stinky" cheese.
I assumed they were talking about things like limberger, etc.
Now that's a *STINKY* cheese!

I think her point is that the strongest cheese she eats isn't very
strong. They are slightly stronger than cream cheese.

I love cooking with wine.
Sometimes I even put it in the food.

Indeed. :-)
I think that stinky cheeses have a very strong flavor. Mom got me to
taste limberger.

Once.

She loved the stuff!

OMG, I should use words like 'kissing' in survey questions? What would
Ma say?

I just got an ad featuring special extra-strong garlic that is supposed
to keep bugs off of you (and your horse and your dog.)

How many times did you do that? It sounds more than a little
disturbing.

The biggest case of 'garlic smell' was some friends of mine who were
my house guests had gone to an Italian restaurant. One of the
restaurant's specialties is a whole head of roasted garlic served with
some olive oil and good Italian bread. You squeeze the garlic on to
the bread like toothpaste and dunk it in the olive oil and maybe some
salt. It's wonderful to eat, but
whew,....the next day they both smelled. I walked into their room
and said "did you guys go to Lombardi's last night?"

They were astonished, thought I was psychic or something!! ;-)

Very disturbing... I never did draw one while being held down. I
managed instead to help talk them into cooperating.

I'm a people person, and I'll even be nice to a drunk. :-) It's part of
my job and I'll treat them just like any other patient.

I treated them like pediatric patients. Take the time to explain stuff
to a child and it helps. Altho' I would always have another tech hold a
child's arm but I'd tell the kid "so and so is going to help you hold
still".

It's all in the wording. :-)

Yeah, but . . . she was implying, it seemed to me, that sharp
cheddar was stinky. But perhaps I inferred something she did
not mean.
