Does this mean that it's ok for me to drink gasoline?

Cinnamon still smells better than gasoline.

That fresh grassy smell wafting up from the newly sliced tomato may be its way of saying "I'm good for you."

Or, alternatively, it could be the tomato's way of saying "I'm filled with nerve gas".

I love to eat brussel sprouts, but I wouldn't say they smell good.

The smell of tuna never bothered me.

Fresh hot chocolate chip cookies must be really good for me.

Maybe your individual body chemistry doesn't need what's in papaya. There's a strange overlap in people who don't like eggs too...

"They found that the wild tomato contained more than three times the amount of that chemical than the cultivated version."

Nothing beats the flavor of an heirloom tomato! Shameless plug for the company I used to work for:

http://www.seedsavers.org

I recommend Brandywine for flavor (it's a butt-ugly tomato) and Opalka for a canning and sauce tomato.

Personally? I don't mind the smell of skunk, or the smell of cigarettes, and I don't have a pet skunk, nor do I smoke, nor would I care to eat either, LOL! Now how weird is THAT? (Very.)

Last summer, shortly after the beginning of a calorie-counting diet, we went to the county fair. The smell of all that sugar fried in grease (funnel cakes, fried ice cream, etc.) was driving me nuts! Yum, yum! I got through it, though, with just a buttered ear of corn.
