here's a valid question. Why do old people smell the way they do. My pawpaw didn't have an odor problem. He always smelled like Irish Spring. But my old mawmaw always smelled like spoiled onions. She bathed everyday with Ivory soap, and wore perfume and deoderant but she always smelled like nasty rotten onions. Does your old people smell funny and do you know why? This is not meant to be mean either. It's a fact of life.

It is funny, if you eat allot of food that smell, like onions your body will give off that smell. Just like if you eat allot of garlic, no matter what you wear you will always smell of garlic.

That does make sense. I was just talking to Dad and he said that woman ate more onions than anything. He said with her age and the garlic pills she was on, anything was possible-Thanks for your response!
