Poop Should NOT smell like Chocolate!

A stupid question you think? Perhaps so, but if you are eating so much chocolate that your poop smells “chocolate-ty,” then you will might as well give up on dieting.

I can speak from experience (oh boy, here we go…). After consuming a 16-ounce chocolate product before going to sleep one night, I did discover that olfactory sensation the next morning. My poop smelled like chocolate! How embarrassing! Especially since this occurred not in the privacy of my own home, but rather in the Navy, on board ship, in the most “public” facilities one could imagine. That men would notice and comment…”OKAY, who has chocolate in here?” is particularly noteworthy since they thought I was not “sharing” my treat from home.

They were correct. I had received and quickly consumed my “treat from home” before any other shipmates could demand that I share it with them. My selfishness was somewhat justified because we were out at sea for 103 days and supplies of “pogey bait” were low. The “treat from home” was received courtesy of the ship’s helicopter that made a trip over to the Aircraft Carrier to pick up our mail.

I cared not a whit about my calories or my weight back in those days. I weighed about 145, all six feet of me. We are talking 25 years ago.

Incidentally, today, June 11, is the anniversary of the date that I first joined the Navy in 1965. Wow, that was 44 years ago! I am officially an old fart who still loves chocolate.

    That is so funny. How I wish I weren’t allergic to chocolate at least than I would have a replacement for sex.

    Great story. I had a nice little laugh. I am also surprised to never have had this experience–minus the ship part. :)

    A pound of chocolate in one sitting, that’s a lot of chocolate! My father was a Navy man also, I will have to tell him your story he will get a kick out of it. Happy Anniversary.

    Take care,
    Brian, the old man
