Urine Memes

The infamous asparagus pee phenomenon strikes again! This meme perfectly captures the genetic divide between humanity: those blissfully unaware their urine smells after eating asparagus versus the poor souls who can detect that distinctive sulfurous odor. Only about 40% of people have the gene that allows them to smell the methanethiol compounds produced when asparagus is digested. The rest live in ignorant bliss, wondering why anyone would need a gas mask in the bathroom. Next time you're at a dinner party with asparagus on the menu, just remember - you're either Gregor Mendel or you're Gregor Mendel with a hazmat suit.
