Is it normal that my sweat smells like my previous meal?

Whenever I eat a meal, and then sweat heavily after, my sweat smells strongly like my previous meal? Is this normal? Is it healthy?

    Matiu is a Pratt. Ignore him! They obviously think they have no imperfections, because it is perfectly normal especially with strong ingredients

    Sometimes if I eat particularly spicy food, or food with lots of garlic in, I can smell it in my hair the next day when showering. Sounds weird I know, but it's actually perfectly normal biologically.

    You should drink cologne regularly. Not only will you smell great, but you'll get a nice buzz from it too.

    WEll, If you eat a lot of garlic, for instance, then I do believe your sweat would have a garlicky tang-I think it's due to allyl methyl sulfide which goes into the blood stream when you break down garlic. This then leaves via the lungs (bad breath)and pores (garlicky sweat) So I think it is normal :)

    Its particularly common from strong and pungent ingredients, i.e. Garlic and curry. Thats one of the reasons that someone can still smell of garlic the morning after their meal.

    Sometime before I was born, my dad sweated a pink, curry-smelling perspiration after eating a curry. Or so he says.
