Why does this happen to me and others?

Question

I farted last night and it smelled like a rotten egg or possibly boiled egg. I haven't eaten an egg in several days why does this happen sometimes?

Answer 1

as your food digests and breaks down it can release certain gases i.e. the reason we all f**t, eggs usually smell like that because of the sulfur they have so you must have just been eating foods with alot of sulfur lately thats all

Answer 2

So based on the last two answers since my farts sometimes smell like old tires or rags  I have eaten some type of rubber or towel over the last few days or so? Some peoples farts just smell like boiled or rotten eggs regardless. I have a friend of mine that could go a year without eating anything with eggs and it's a sure bet he will let out an egg salad f**t everytime. Who knows probably has to do with the plumbing and maybe different gases along with your poopie which produces a certain smell? Either way that is a sure fire way of clearing the room.  

Answer 3

chances are, that you did indeed eat eggs, in something else you ate. However, it seems that most processed meats are treated with a sulphur based product to keep them fresh longer. So, if you had something as simple as a  salami sandwich, it could produce that smell
