The effect of eating asparagus on one's urine has long been known. Marcel Proust claimed that asparagus "...transforms my chamber-pot into a flask of perfume." Certain constituents of asparagus are metabolized giving urine a distinctivi smell due to various sulfer-containing degradation products, including various thiols, thioesters, and ammonia.
