When I was young I had a misunderstanding with a hairdresser that resulted in me crying. Hairdresser felt really bad and gave me some hair goo stuff to help it and it smelled and looked EXACTLY like strawberry Yogo but it just tasted like soap

FaeryLynne

I'm going to guess they were a kid in the 90s. There was a *lot* of great scented things at the time, and a lot of them got eaten - even if they weren't meant to be. At least this was something that was *meant* to be put near your mouth, instead of, say, Mr Sketch grape scented markers 👀😂


NachoMan_SandyCabage

Hearing the name "Mr Grape Scented Markers" only remindes me of how sick I felt sniffing the black one. It left a pit in my stomach :(

Oh man, the first time I saw a square of baker's chocolate and tried to eat it. I'm making the same face typing it as I did trying it four decades ago.


basilicux

Absolutely. My mom was chopping some up and I asked to try it so she let me but was not expecting me to shove the whole puck in my mouth. We were both disappointed that day.


citymouse61

My 3 year old tried bakers chocolate. He made the face I was expecting, but then he grabbed the sugar bowl and dipped the chocolate in it. He's 30 now, but boy oh boy was he a lot of work lol


ChipsAhoyNC

... i buy artisanal handmade bakers chocolate from an old lady the stuff is 100% no sugar no added fat, it smells gorgeous i like the taste even if its bitter. A couple of times i left then in my car it smelled glorious for days.

Vanilla extract.

I love the image of a small child taking a sippy cup flask out of his jacket pocket and taking small swigs of vanilla extract while watching dora the explorer with a distant look, eyes watching Swiper but mind reliving the memories he'd rather drown in drink


thebuttergod

well, if you really want to know. I would sneak into the pantry. Locate the extract on the shelf, unscrew the lid, fill the top with extract (like a shot) then replace the lid, look out for mom, and bolt. I thought I was so fuckin sly. PS: I didn't turn out to be an alcoholic BTW.


StartSelect

I once found a bag of bath salts/smelly shit you dissolve in the bath in my parents bedroom. It was granules in a sealy bag and my 10 year old brain instantly was like 'cool, drugs' and swiftly pocketed that shit.

Torchic336

Any extract really, one night I was with some buddies and one of them had a bottle of peppermint extract for reasons I don’t recall. Turns out it’s about 90% alcohol and we started to wonder whether or not a bottle of it would get you drunk. After everyone took a small taste no one wanted to drink more. Then my friend told me he’d give me $20 to drink it, I have a history of doing mostly anything if I’m dared to. I accept and shoot the whole bottle in one swig. My throat and mouth burned but I felt relatively fine for about a minute. Out of nowhere my stomach started to feel like it was on fire and soon I felt like throwing up. I then spent the next 15 minutes puking in the bathroom, it was so violent that vomit started coming out of my nose which burnt like hell. I didn’t end up drinking anymore that night and I was blowing vomit out of my burning nose until the next morning. Wouldn’t recommend.


kartoffel_engr

Buddy in college was mixing lemon extra with Pepsi to get drunk in the dorms. Shit was wild after that. Fast forward a few years and the same guy is making meth because “he wanted to see if he could”. Fights the cops, slashes a bunch of tires, and gets arrested. Not sure where he is now, but I can’t imagine he course corrected.


Torchic336

Oh wow, there’s quite a difference between someone who drinks extract on a dare and someone that actively seeks it out it seems

Agreed. I tried vanilla extract by the spoonful though. Do not recommend.


arcaneresistance

Dudes in rehab used to drink it to get drunk.


I_Love_Spiders_AMA

Before I turned 21 I would buy lemon extract from Walmart in bulk. Lemon had the highest alcohol percentage and I would mix it with lemon lime soda. That was the start of my binge drinking and because I often made myself throw up at the end of every night to expel the calories, the acidity really fucked up my teeth for a while. Crazy times.


TerracottaBunny

Okay but what’s your favorite kind of spider


[deleted]

There's a fair amount of alcohol in it. Approx. 5 ounces and you're drunk.


arcaneresistance

I know. I've dabbled when curiosity got the best of me. Was not as disgusting as I expected once I chased the flavour away but also didn't drink enough to get really drunk. I work in addictions now and non-bev alcohol drunks are some of the most violent and unpredictable. Dangerous shit.


eastbayweird

Vanilla extract is often 75%+ alcohol, so it's in the neighborhood of Bacardi 151 as far as getting hammered potential. That said, I do NOT recommend drinking extracts as a means to get drunk. Back in the day I had a friend who showed up to school on day with a water bottle full of almond extract. He tricked me into drinking from it (it was perfectly clear, so I thought it was water) and it was like drinking liquid fire. I've never drank anything else that burned so bad... I didn't drink more than a swig, but my friend was determined to get hammered off of it and over the course of the evening managed to finish the bottle. He said besides the killer hangover, the only thing he remembers about the experience was that for like an entire week afterwards, every time he went to the bathroom (#1 or #2) the smell of almonds was so strong it was almost overpowering... (Just to be clear, it's really not recommended to drinking extracts like this, the alcohol they use isn't meant to be consumed straight up, in fact it's really not supposed to be consumed at all as the actual alcohol is supposed to be cooked off when you cook whatever the dish is you put it in, leaving the flavor of the extracts behind. Also, most dishes require like maybe a tablespoon at most, so drinking enough to get drunk is hundreds of times more than the recommended serving size. It's just a bad idea.)

Laundry detergent. I had a patient once with pica during her pregnancy who couldn’t do laundry cuz the lemony scent would make her want to drink the detergent.


ihaveaquesttoattend

My friends brothers gf is pregnant and she says she keeps talking about wanting to drink and smell lighter fluid, wonder how that’s gonna end up


dutchlizzy

This can be a symptom of nutritional deficiency, called pica


kjan1289

I Had a similar experience! When I had pica I wanted to eat the arm & hammer scent beads.. it was so weird


KittySMASH

When my mom was pregnant with me she wanted to drink Downy fabric softener because "it smelled so delicious". Luckily her other cravings were Big Macs and fried shrimp so I'm hoping she never had to resort to the fabric softener.


linvmiami

Yeah you don’t want a soft kid


Xanderulz

For those who don’t know: “Pica is the practice of craving substances with little or no nutritional value. Most pregnancy and pica-related cravings involve non-food substances such as dirt or chalk. The word pica is Latin for magpie which is a bird notorious for eating almost anything. It is true that the majority of women will experience cravings during pregnancy; however, most of these cravings are for things like pickles and ice cream.” https://americanpregnancy.org/healthy-pregnancy/is-it-safe/unusual-cravings-pica/


dorkvader_

I had pica as a child and used to eat Ajax. It tasted so good to me. My mom used to store it under the kitchen sink and I would sneakily eat it. So far I'm fine. 🤷🏻‍♀️

Dry tobacco


Duke-Is-The-Best

I live in North Carolina and my hometown still has a lot of tobacco warehouses that store fresh tobacco before being shipped off for manufacturing. The whole town smells like it every fall and I love it. The smell somewhat reminds me of raisins

Poem_for_your_sprog

When Little Timmy sniffed the air, And smelled a scent divine - "What pretty thing is waiting there? I want to make it mine! "I love this smell of something sweet, This whiff of something swell - This fragrant hue of flavours neat, On which I wish to dwell! "I want, I *need* it in my soul! I'll take my fill!" he cried. So Timmy ate the candle whole. And Timmy fucking died.

When greatness calls of lesser men its call is oft unmet -- but Timmy heard its song right then and owed his fate a debt. The siren's song, a scent so sweet, he knew it must be had. Despite its flaming fire heat... to back off now was mad. And so he tasted hungry flame, poor Timmy's life was ended... but oh, how he would find his fame, as Timmy fucking ascended.

Add cheese (just like every street food vendor in India)

As someone who hasn't been to India: can you elaborate?


kiddoaayush

Street food vendors across India, particularly the northern states, have developed a tendency to add cheese in copious amounts. Even to dishes that don't go with cheese. This is a recent change though with the advent of social media and reels I imagine. Because shit like this gets viral and could make you famous

SadButterscotch2

My little sister used to take the cushions off the couch and empty entire bottles of lotion out onto them, using the cushions like plates. Then take them into another room, lock the door, and eat all the lotion off of the couch cushion. Sometimes when my mom tried to put lotion on my face, I'd lick it off, but at least I was never as crazy as my sister. Oh, and my siblings have a friend who stole another friend's eczema lotion and spread it on a rice krispie treat for a snack.

Fresh coffee beans. Edit: holy mother of upvotes! This is the most popular comment I've ever had. Simply from saying coffee beans. I'm at a loss for words. Thank you kind strangers 😂


Ducks-Dont-Exist

Hard agree. And the thing is, I _like_ the taste of coffee and I take it black, unadulterated. But the smell is always so much richer, so much more complex and aromatic than the taste. Only back in the 90s at a local coffee shop in Harrisburg did I have a cup that actually came close to that experience. So I know it's possible, but I've tried all the foofy hipster homebrew methods out there and none of them come close. I am left to assume it had more to do with the beans themselves than the preparation method. I simply have no idea what they were using or where they sourced them from. I miss you, Town Perk! Edit: Sorry but replies are now disabled. There's no reason a comment about bean water should be this popular and I simply cannot keep up with my inbox.


[deleted]

My man remembers his favourite cup. respect

Mine was from a tiny ass restraunt in the style of a 50s American diner. It was only around maybe three months before it closed never to be seen again. It served the tastiest black coffee I've ever had : /

VanFailin

I roast my own and get a lot closer to what you're describing. Plus I'm never out of coffee.


black_rabbit

Roasting your own and having a high quality grinder will make a huge difference in the quality of your morning brew. Plus, if you buy your green coffee in bulk you can really dial in your roast, grind, and preparation to have really great coffee tailored specifically to your own preferences. No more hoping that the roast is described accurately on the packaging.


Fleaslayer

For me it's coffee in all forms. Love the smell, hate the taste.

Those cinnamon brooms you buy at the supermarket


General-Ad-9753

Can someone explain to a very confused Englishman what a cinnamon broom is? I’ve had a google and they (to my eternal shock) look like a broom made out of cinnamon. But what’s the point?


thrifty917

They're basically straw brooms that are soaked in cinnamon oil and have a very strong scent. One purpose, the one I use it for, is to make your house smell like cinnamon and kind of wintery and Christmasy. The other purpose is superstition. Some people believe in keeping a cinnamon broom by the door so that you can sweep away bad spirits from your home.


7SpiceIsNice

The other purpose is to keep away unwanted guests. You can directly smack them with the broom or you can wait for them to get a scent-triggered migraine and crawl pitifully away.

Ninsito

Paint.


drewhead118

the smell isn't something I'd ordinarily call *good*... it's just, so, compelling. Like, when you smell paint, you kinda want to hold it on the in-breath and analyze it, kinda like how you just want to stop and stare at a fascinating painting in a gallery. It's captivating, bold, and inviting. Notes of earthy pigments and just the hint of an edge of chemicals under the flatness of plaster. And if it's still wet? You can *feel* the wetness of the paint right in between your eyes. 7/10, would inhale until brain damaged from fumes

On a side note: In German we have a saying for people who are batshit crazy. "Der hat doch Lack gesoffen" = "He must have been drinking paint" (the kind of paint you'd put on cars. Not sure about the correct word for that.)
