Bearcat urine smells like freshly buttered popcorn! Benjamin Franklin only had two years of formal education. Tornadoes are so powerful they can dig a hole in the ground three feet deep.
Ever trap and smell a skunk… by mistake and have to get rid of him?Smells just like a Starbucks coffee palace…..Don’t try it to find out….It’s too true…..
I use to date a woman who would go on vegetarian diets:) Her farts were sweet:) Then she would switch to eating meat and her farts smelled funny:) I am a carnivore:) I farted:( She gagged, staggered out of my apartment, dressing as she went . . . and I ain’t seen her since:( Poor baby:(
Humans are not carnivores. Some may think so, but they are short changing their diets.Omnivores. That is what we are. Carnivores have short, smooth digestive tracts because the digestive enzyme uses are carcinogenic so it must leave the body fast. We are not that way.
“Using a technique called gas chromatography-mass spectrometry, the researchers identified 29 chemical compounds in the animals’ urine. The one compound that emanated from every sample was 2-acetyl-1-pyrroline, or 2-AP — the same compound that gives popcorn its tantalizing scent.”

Yeah, I noticed that about bearcat urine. Still, even with the stench, it’s worth it.
