Default Ripe Apples DON'T Smell Bad

But they DON'T stink! Fresh fruits, for the most part, smell
mouthwateringly delicious. Think about it - fruits, needing to spread
their seed, need animals to want to eat them. That's why they smell
good. You clearly have some abberant gene that is doing this to you, or
you need to see a good ear, nose and throat doctor, because your
experience is NOT normal!

I like the flavors of most fruits. What I don't like is stink they emit
when ripe. Most fruits have the same basic flavor whether ripe or
unripe. Its just that they emit an additional odor when ripe that
happens to be extremely foul. More and more I am starting to think this
has to do with the sugar since canned syrupy fruits stink more than
fresh fruits. I could be mistaken about the sugar part, just maybe.
I've tried opening up a large pack of sugar and smelling it, the sugar
does have a mild foul odor but not nearly as foul as that of canned
ripe fruits. So maybe its the reactions of the sugars and "ripe fruit
chemicals" that produce the foul odors when combined.

I like lemonade without sugar. Once sugar is added, the lemonade begins
to smell sort of bad.

Once again though, I really enjoy the flavors of most fruits.

No, they don't! Again, there is something wrong with your sense of
smell and/or tase. You really should see someone and try to figure out
what's wrong. Either you have some abberant gene that is doing this to
you, or you need to see a good ear, nose and throat doctor, because
your experience is NOT normal and I feel kinda sorry for you, that
you're missing out on how good fruit smells.
