Had 'accidental' asparagus growing in my garden for years after I moved here. Seldom made it as far as the kitchen as I usually ate it before it got there.

It's all gone now.

Makes my wee smell disgusting. Makes me smell disgusting. Comes out of my pores. I'm cursed with both making it and smelling it (both independent genetic traits). One of my main fears in life is being trapped in the spargelfest loo.

I actually like asparagus, but the odour of the byproducts is unbearable, so I have to religiously avoid.

Had an asparagus starter in the Sky Garden brasserie on Friday evening.
Wee remains 'noticeably pungent'.

I'm just amazed how quickly it takes effect.  Literally Eat Asparagus starter, nip to the loo before main course, noticeable odour.
