Could the smell of your EARWAX reveal where you’ve been, what you’ve eaten and even if you are gay?…

As hard as I try I can’t get my nose close enough to either ear.

Like ‘Grandma’ used to say...
Never put anything in your ear smaller than your elbow.
OR
Eat every bean and pee(sic) on your plate.

I used to have a friend that was a girl that would perform certain acts and she swore she could not only tell if you smoked but what brand.

I was usually so enamored and hammered that I didn’t realize she was looking in my shirt pocket?

You could find out the same things by analyzing any bodily secretion, given that secretions will always contain dead cells, which contain DNA, and that chemical residues present in the body will likely be secreted along with the mucous, wax, or whatever.


The ear wax probably stays with you a little bit longer.

Although the subject is a bit gross, I suppose that chemical analysis of one’s ear way might be pretty revealing. What I find interesting is that I have never seen mention of it on CSI or those reality forensics TV shows.
I have seen quite a few of those shows and have never heard a mention of this.
