TAINT MISBEHAVIN'

摘要

Could unpleasant experiences with boar taint be one reason why women (who are more sensitive to it than men) don't buy as much pork as their continental counterparts? omen are more susceptible to boar taint than men, and as women usually do the shopping, that might be a factor in why we eat less pork in Britain than they do on the continent. Some people are highly susceptible to the odour of boar taint, which is caused by andro-stenone, a male steroid, and ska-tole, a metabolite of tryptophan.
