A member asked:
Most of the times my urine smells like the food that i just ate, is that normal?
3 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Yes: Many foods have compounds that get filtered in the kidneys. Consequently, some of this may end up in the urine causing it to smell like the food. That is usually of no worry. Asparagus is one example.

See remark: Quite normal After all urine carries by-products of what we ingest (eat & drink)
