Tf they think vegan people taste like rainbows and sunsets?
Having had vegan girlfriends and a wife who was vegan for a bit I can attest it makes a difference. Maybe not rainbows but they tasted much sweeter and more mild than average.
Yeah wife and i cut way back on meat, body odor in general is less.. gamey? Smokey? Something.
I really like it, I'm easily overwhelmed by strong smells and I can usually wear unscented deodorant now. I used to funk right through it immediately.
Does egg and dairy (vegetarian) make a difference?
Not op, but I eat very little meat, and when i stay with vegan friends and eat their food it takes me longer to feel dirty. Its wild.
Cutting red meat & fast food made the biggest difference, followed by other meat, then dairy, in body smell.
Now that i think about it, i play sports and get very cuddly with vegans and i can't remember ever noticing anyone smelling too bad, which is surprising.
I have started trying to eat closer to vegan before we visit, because I definitely notice the difference on myself and my wife.
I can't say for sure. I've never gone down on a vegetarian.
Best guess from years of experience: Eggs are similar to meat in their effect. Dairy heavy diets lead to a specific smell all its own, like baby poop, but I don't think it changes the skin or secretion taste much.
generally, having a shit diet will make you not smell (and i guess certain.. parts.. taste) great.
whenever i eat mcdonalds i stink of some specific compound in their food for several days afterward, even if i shower thuroughly
Meanwhile I can eat expired MREs and drnk nothing but Mt dew for a week and at worst I shit a brick and feel my teeth. Sounds like ya have a skill issue.
I have noticed the same thing too... I think it's in the buns. At least I don't notice it with their fries or nuggets
maybe there are several parts of the food that curse you with a smell, because the specific one i'm thinking of smells like the mctasty sauce tastes, which makes the whole thing even more disturbing
Hmm I haven't ever tried the Mctasty sauce, but yeah it's a very distinct McDonald's smell, kinda like how your car smells for a couple days after having the food in there
Vegans have more fruits and vegetables inside them so have a higher level of fermentation apparently. Everyone does to a certain extent, but I've found that occasionally it can lead to more gas (eat more grains)
So I can legit just tell my vegan friends that they're drunk when they say weird shit.
..now, for the rest of my friends..
