<p>Allright so this a weird thing. About two weeks ago I noticed a pungent odor and blamed it on an extended stay at the inlaws. A week later... it's still here.</p> <p>I noticed today that while eating a piece of pork I smelled a similar smell.</p> <p>Problem is I only eat it 2 x a week and is my savior from a chicken thick diet. I've eaten the pork extensively for months and only noticed two weeks ago. Any other ideas on what may cause this and get it stopped?</p>

<p>So why don't you just eat some beef instead? Maybe it is time for change.</p>

<p>I guess to clarify what I'm asking... Am I the only person that experienced this? Why is it, that I've at this way for months, but in the last two weeks just now experience the smell issue? How can I fix it? and is it worth losing a protein source over if you were in my situation?</p> <p>For more Paleo hacks: <a href="http://paleohacks.com/questions/105693/pork-and-odor-weirdness#ixzz1pRLkbYO5" rel="nofollow">http://paleohacks.com/questions/105693/pork-and-odor-weirdness#ixzz1pRLkbYO5</a></p>

<p>No, you're not alone. I have always smelled an odor with pork. When I still had my gallbladder, pork had to be boiled/simmered in water because whatever gave me a bellyache (and had that odor) was removed by cooking in water. </p> <p>I still boil/simmer it because it tastes so much better to me that way. I "smell the smell" while it's cooking in water but it's gone from the pork when I eat it. Once it's fully cooked, I just stick it under the broiler to brown it a little or bake it in a sauce.</p> <p>I don't know about you, but I don't have the odor problem with bacon and ham, which is nice although neither of those is a staple for me now.</p>

<p>I think the pork from Costco became more smelly lately... You may be undercooking it as well...</p>

<p>hmmm I am notorious for not cooking my meat thoroughly. I might try cooking it more.</p> <p>I got the questionable pork at two separate stores (neither costco actually) So the cooking it might be the answer</p> <p>For the time being I'll lay off pork. I only have one pork item in the freezer (and it's a huge loin that roasts as compared to the pork steaks) so I'll just let it settle out</p>

<p>Might be slightly off? You don't hang pork like you would beef or lamb...</p>

<p>You should also be able to tell you've eaten pork when you pee.</p>

<p>Was it cheap pork? Pork from pigs that are fed garbage smells like garbage. I wouldn't be surprised if that could impart smelliness on people who eat it.</p>

<p>Do you have an irrational fear of bacon? Does bacon frying in a pan cause a lone tear to stream down your face? If you wrap bacon in a piece of bacon, how does it make you feel? Did the last sentence arouse anyone else beside me?</p> <p>If you've answered yes or no to most of these, though I'm not a doctor, it would sound like you haven’t' developed a bacon allergy and life is still worth living.</p> <p>As far as the smell goes…elimination diet…eat no pork for a day…the next day, eat nothing but pork…death by bacon…there’s worse ways to go.</p> <p>Truth.</p>

<p>Maybe it's androstenone and/or skatalone. AKA boar taint:</p> <p><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boar_taint" rel="nofollow">http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boar_taint</a></p>
