Ripe Apples DON'T Smell Bad
Thats because apples are not true fruits.
Mangoes, peaches, guava, bananas, the SE Asian durian fruit, papayas, and nectarines are true fruits. That is why they stink badly when ripe. Their stinks is increased exponentially if they are canned. It probably has something to do with the sugar in the canned variety. Often canned fruits are bathed in sugary syrup. Perhaps the sugar reacts with the certain ripe chemicals of the fruits [including but not limited to esters, aldehydes, and terpenes] and thus produce a stink. I can't stand it. Sour, unripe red and green fruits are so fresh, sour, energizing, clean, rejuvenating, lively, and effervescent. The perfume of heaven is the scent given off by these fruits Ripe yellow fruits, OTOH, are stinky, stale, tickly, annoying, irritating, frightening, and putrid. They make my skin crawl. Eww. Its the smell of hell. |

Durian is interesting. Unlike the other fruits mentioned, it really does smell bad. Really bad. Hotels in Asia tell their guests durians aren't allowed in the rooms. But surprisingly, it tastes great. What chemical(s) produce the durian stink? Ripe yellow fruits, OTOH, are stinky, stale, tickly, annoying, irritating, frightening, and putrid. They make my skin crawl. Eww. Its the smell of hell. You need therapy....... No, he seems to have a yummy fruit sensor in his nose connected to the "stink" nerves or something. But he doesn't recognize that he's unusual/unique in this regard. Given that apples don't have that reaction on him, maybe someone can recognize a chemical present in the other ripe fruits but not apples. However, apples are as just as much a fruit as the others. Trying opening a can of syrupy mangoes in a warm enivornment. The stink will you traumatize you. Canned mangoes...mmmmm....yummy. But fresh ones are much nicer. |

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. |

Again, it's something unique about you that thinks ripe fruits smell foul. You write as if most people think ripe fruits smell foul, which is far from the truth. Perhaps you can find an organic chemist with access to several aldehydes etc. to find the specific chemical you have the odd reaction to, or maybe sniff the artificial flavorings from a supermarket, if you're that curious. Also fruits have a wide variety of flavors, once you get past the basic sweet and tart/acid tastes most have. |

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!

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.
