In my future queendom, consumption of asparagus will be enforced.

So easy to detect.

    Only about 40% of all people are detectable after consuming asparagus. I guess it’s a genetic thing (some enzymes are there or aren’t), and I suppose you own these genes as I do 🙂
    Sorry to disappoint you – there’s no 100% guarantee. Not even with asparagus.

    Yeah, I’ve also heard that some people don’t smell asparagus as they exit our bodies. Didn’t know it was such a high percentage. Hopefully. my queendom will last for soooo long (without much mating with foreigners) that everyone will gain the asparag”ene”…

    Then again, I feel that these 60% of the people may perhaps be the lucky ones…

    Mika, your blog is delightful. Found it totally by chance, but I had to say that the way you think and pour your words into your blog are an inspiration.

    Thanks and keep it up!

    Actually, later studies suggest that all people produce detectable scents after eating asparagus. It’s that only 40% of the population can tell, and 60% cannot smell it.

    Clearly, you must choose your high officials for their sensitive noses.

    I note that I am in Holland during the asparagus season and I have not yet had any — I need to change that before I leave…
