Either my sense of smell is playing tricks on me, or I’m onto something.

Several months ago, I ate Sugar Smacks cereal for the first time in years. While at work, I made a quick bathroom break. It was then I realized that my pee smelled exactly like what I had eaten for breakfast.

The next day, the exact same thing happened.

My question is: Has anyone else had this experience with Sugar Smacks?

(I can’t believe I’m saying this…but…)

Thanks GOd someone else noticed this…

I have noticed that ‘puffed wheat’ has an smell that urine can occasionally have.

Don’t ask me why…I’ve never asked anyone for fear of getting ‘that look’.
