Why does flatulence smell bad on some people and not others?


Question:
I'm sure diet has alot to do with it but I wonder what is the main reason that farts smell so bad?

Answers:
It all has to do with G.I. track,certain foods usually greasy food.The oil tends to interrupt the flow in your G.I. tract,i.e. gas. Animal fats do the same as they are digested(liquefied):Bacon=toxi. death,plain chicken Breast=no problem. Also fruits with a lot of fiber does the same but as they have no oil/fat content you get gas with on smell.

Other Answers:
diet is the only reason I can think of
It depends on the type of food but also the amount of time the food has been in your bowels. The longer its in there the worse it smells. Some people only have movements once every other day, those people have the worst farts. Some people have very fast digestive systems, and they tend to poot all the time without hardly any smell.
