Well, everyone in my family has smelly urine after eating asparagus (which we eat 1-2 days a week).

I used to not be bothered by the smelly urine but it does bother me now but I still eat them. I am the grocery shopper in my family and I buy them at least once a week (fresh) but plan on it since they go bad quickly (a couple of days) and they are expensive so we eat them quick. They are not like broccoli that can keep awhile in the frig.
