Some information

The chemicals which make urine smell bad after eating asparagus are S-methyl thioacrylate and S-methyl 3-(methylthio)thiopropionate. Those people who produce these compounds after eating asparagus have a gene which allows these chemicals to be produced while the asparagus is being digested.

Also the legendary baseball star babe Ruth once refused an offered plate of asparagus at a dinner party with the words, ??asparagus makes my urine smell funny.?

You are in good company.
