BLOG IN YOUR FACE

Get ready Nebraska! And for those of you that aren’t from Nebraska, boy do I feel sorry for you! You are missing an extraordinary event…one in which Nebraskans await nearly as anxiously as the opening season of Husker football. Yes indeed, it is wild Asparagus season! People all across the upside-down-pan-shaped state will be scouring the ditches and  railroad tracks in search of the delicacy this week. And in honor of wild Asparagus season, I would like to honor the one thing that makes Asparagus absolutely hilarious: Stinky Pee.

Did you know that your post-Asparagus stinky pee is caused by none other than a chemical called Methanethiol? But don’t be so quick to give Methanethiol such a bad rap! This cousin of sulfur actually helps cleanse your body of toxins. So give it a break!

 Wanna know some other foods that have the stinky substance in them? HO-KAY!!

1) Cheddar Cheese
2) Eggs
3) Cabbage
4) Peanuts
5) Coffee
6) Mushrooms

Don’t bother this year, because wild Asparagus is only in season for another couple of days. But, get your friends together for next year’s wild Asparagus season and don’t miss out on the stinky pee excitement!
