Why do ripe fruits - especially when canned - smell bad?

I notice that many fruits [excluding apples] emit foul odors when ripe. What chemicals are responsible for this? 1. Employees of canning plants are notorious for defecating in canned fruit. 2. Lots of vegetable matter decomposes into unpleasant things with time or heat. I have a grapefruit tree near my window, and there are days it makes me gag. 3. The odor of apples consists of about nine main ingredients. Other fruits are even more complex. Many of these smell pretty bad on their own, Some of them break down in the canning process, and the ones left behind might stink pretty badly. 4. Things like sulfur dioxide might be added to preserve the color during canning. 5. Fruit that is canned is often fruit that's too rotten to sell. Dangerous Bill |
