Speaking for myself, my feces contains no skatole.

skatole: A little-known Hawaiian word for pineapple.

Several years ago a friend of mine went to beauty school and learned that animal urine is an ingredient in hair and facial products.

Your Holiness,

I would not mislead you.

Here's a link to more chemistry than you want to know, with a bit extracted for your considereation:

http://www.chemicalland21.com/arokorhi/specialtychem/finechem/3-METHYLINDOLE.htm

"Indole, also called Benzopyrrole, is a yellow crystalline powder with unpleasant aroma. It is a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic organic compound fused to benzene ring. It occurs in some plants and in coal tar, and is formed in the intestine during putrefaction and by certain cultures of bacteria. it is commercially synthesized from phenylhydrazine and pyruvic acid. It is used in perfumery and in preparing tryptophan, one of the 20 amino acids commonly found in animal proteins, and indoleacetic acid (auxin), a plant growth substances helps the development of roots in plant cuttings and a selective herbicide. It is used in making perfumes and medicines. 3-Methylindole is used as an intermediate for the synthesis of dyes, pigments , flavoring agents and Pharmaceuticals "

Just because it smells like skat doesn't mean it comes from skat.

Another nice chemical is cadaverine. Guess what IT smells like?

Nathan my son,

it is commercially synthesized from phenylhydrazine and pyruvic acid.

I am no so sure that this is such a better source than a big old turd in any case....

Waiter: "Would you like any dessert, Sir?"

Nathan: "yes, bring me a big ol' plate of vanilla ice-cream with extra phenylhydrazine and some pyruvic acid sprinkles please"...

pew!

I always thought doodie smelled like really strong vanilla ice cream. I guess it does smell like really strong vanilla ice cream.

"Wow you smell nice tonight, dear! What is that GREAT perfume your're wearing??"

That would be Vanilla Fields! LOL

True story and now I am beginning to understand it better. Craig and I were at an Auto Show and there was an ice cream stand outside. We were taking a break sitting in the shade on a bench when we observed this man with the cutest dog. He bought an ice cream and sat down across from us and started eating his ice cream while the dog was begging for some. He bent down and offered the dog a bite which of course the dog began licking the ice cream like crazy. Now this was one of those expensive ice cream stands where you have a choice of fancy cones and he had his in a waffle/chocolate dipped cone.

I looked at Craig and said, "wow what an expensive dog treat!" We both fully expected the guy to place the whole thing on the ground and let the dog have the rest after he only had one bite of it himself. But NO, HE CONTINUED TO EAT THE ICE CREAM AFTER HIS DOG HAD LICKED IT, SLOBBERED ALL OVER IT....................and gawd we all know dogs lick their butts! He continued to share the cone with the dog, we were sooooooo puking!

Craig and I still laugh about this and still in disbelief that it actually happened! So now I think I get the connection between dogs, ice cream and people who lick dogs butts, errr I mean let dogs lick their ice cream. It's gotta be the smelly substance in excrement is skatole (3-methylindole) Phew!

Somehow I doubt I'll give up ice cream, well maybe Vanilla but there are so many choices man! I think however I won't be eating it around any dogs!
