Rotten Onion Smell

RE: Rotten Onion Smell Post By (Guest Post) (09/05/2008) If you have an iMac computer.... they have a history of smelling after being 3 or 4 years old... if not look it up in Google :P Editor's Note: If anyone has link information about this, please post it. I could not find anything about this at all. I also have had a couple of Imacs and don't remember any smell issues.

The rotten onion smell was indeed a drip pan way in the back underneath the fridge. This pan had about a 1 mm thick layer of moist (but not wet) black slime in it, the smell of which just about incapacitated the poor guy that stuck his nose in there to see if that was the source of the smell. Probably should have sent a sample off to be tested at some toxin lab. Report Spam or Abuse RE: Rotten Onion Smell Post By Julie (Guest Post) (10/20/2006) Could it actually be potatoes? I had an awful smell in my kitchen a couple of months ago and couldn't figure out where it was coming from! It smelled odd too. Somewhere between a rotten onion and something that you couldn't put your finger on. Finally I remembered that my husband put a bag of potatoes in our old newspaper basket and a couple of the potatoes had rotted and started to leak. It was pretty disgusting!!! It took awhile to get the smell out. Good luck finding the smell!

They were backup sewer fumes. Report Spam or Abuse RE: Rotten Onion Smell Post by msettamae2 (74) | (10/20/2006) Contact Sometimes when plastic gets old it will smell like that. I had some plastic food containers and a plastic shampoo cape that started smelling like rotten onions. I had to toss them out. You might check/smell of anything plastic. Hope you find it.

I haven't had this issue, but just thinking of other places you could possibly check that you might not have done yet. Hope this helps, I hate odors myself, so I feel for you.
