If you have any experience with Celestial Seasonings' "True Blueberry" tea, I'd be interesting in hearing about it. I specifically wonder if, like you, you think that it smells exactly like fresh hot diaper gravy when brewed. I am not merely saying "it smells bad", I am saying "it smells exactly like something recently ejected from a healthy human baby".

The Andys have been guzzling the stuff and think it is great and honestly don't know what I'm on about when I choke and gasp and reel about whenever they make a pot. I find this fascinating, and wonder if I possess a magical poo-smell gene or something, and how alone I am in my condition.

Speaking of poop, Gene Weingarten's lunchtime chat this afternoon featured a challenge to his readers to write verse featuring a rhyme that included "diarrhea". This one was by Gene himself:

A certain type of poultry sickens,
So stay away from ducks and chickens.
They can carry avian flu
Which makes you poo and poo and poo.
So buy some ostrich, buy a rhea
And thus avoid dread diarrhea.

well, it has a smell, but its a mild and not-completely-gross smell. But yeah, henry has just started taking to solids whole hog, and there has been a definite swing in "pants smell"... not for the better.
