Best Answer

Human feces (poop) acquires it nasty smell mostly from the chemicals produced by bacteria present in the gut. These chemicals include indole, skatole and, especially the thiols (sulfur containing compounds) as well as the inorganic gas hydrogen sulfide (also known as rotten egg gas). In addition, some foods retain some of their characteristic odors even after being digested and passing through the intestines. Some of the more famous ones are cabbage and broccoli.
