No Stupid Questions
No such thing. Ask away!
!nostupidquestions is a community dedicated to being helpful and answering each others' questions on various topics.
The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:
Rules (interactive)
Rule 1- All posts must be legitimate questions. All post titles must include a question.
All posts must be legitimate questions, and all post titles must include a question. Questions that are joke or trolling questions, memes, song lyrics as title, etc. are not allowed here. See Rule 6 for all exceptions.
Rule 2- Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material.
Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material. You will be warned first, banned second.
Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.
Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.
Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Questions which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding META posts and joke questions.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-question posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
On fridays, you are allowed to post meme and troll questions, on the condition that it's in text format only, and conforms with our other rules. These posts MUST include the [NSQ Friday] tag in their title.
If you post a serious question on friday and are looking only for legitimate answers, then please include the [Serious] tag on your post. Irrelevant replies will then be removed by moderators.
Rule 7- You can't intentionally annoy, mock, or harass other members.
If you intentionally annoy, mock, harass, or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.
Let everyone have their own content.
Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here.

That would likely be more the retained lipids. Does your poo float well? If so, that's likely the cause.
Acrolin (spelling may be wrong, I'm too tired too look it up lol) is the main chemical you smell from over heated oils. There's also several types of aldehydes made as a byproduct of digesting fats, and they'll tend to be more present when the fats didn't get totally broken down.
But that's usually something you smell more in poop than flatus. What you're smelling in the gas is most likely traces akin to the levels of things like cadaverine that aren't a main component produced as a gas the way hydrogen sulfide is.
That's best guess.
If your poo is floating most of the time, and you're smelling that distinct fried food aroma, might want to cut back on your fat intake a little. Or switch more to polyunsaturated fats at least. It's okay if poo floats sometimes, but it should be either neutral buoyant, or sinking most of the time. If there's enough fat that it floats regularly, that's almost always a sign that you're taking in too much, too often. Polyunsaturated fats won't change that, but at least they're a teeny bit less problematic healthwise (as of current best practices I'm aware of).
If it's not floating, or the smell isn't coming along with fatty foods, get your gall bladder checked just to be extra, extra safe. Something like half the people I've known that ended up having theirs removed had issues with their poo looking and smelling funny, often with higher fat levels and unusual smelling gas. Not saying it's some kind of "oh my god" thing, it's just being super cautious.
They typically sink and they don't have that particular scent component. Apparently, I've been living with bad info on buoyancy apparently because a couple decades Oprah said it's supposed to float. As for fat intake, I cycle on and off with keto (high fat, low carb) but can't say these farts occur during keto. I would also note it's some scent very specific to Wendy's nugs that I don't smell anywhere else. Maybe it's just a particular spice? It's not present in the fries so I don't think it's specifically the oil. I appreciate your educated guess. I was hoping literally anyone else would have this experience. My wife concurs about the similarity of smells but the production is solely my talent.
