You're welcome, here's this:

Fenugreek is also one of four herbs used for the Iranian recipe Ghormeh Sabzi.

A side effect of consuming even small amounts of fenugreek is a maple syrup or curry smell in the eater's sweat and urine which is caused by the potent aroma compound sotolone.*

Fenugreek is frequently used in the production of flavoring for artificial syrups.

The taste of toasted fenugreek is additionally based on substituted pyrazines, as is cumin. By itself, it has a somewhat bitter taste.
