[quote=Anonymous]I bet you have problems digesting some of the unique compounds that make lamb different from beef. Below are some comments on these compounds from random websites. It would probably be impossible to test for this. You could try to see if other foods have these compounds and also make you sick. But why? It's pretty unlikely you have that syndrome that comes from an infection. "3-methylindole, which can impart a rancid odor, and 2,3-octanedione, which indicates a pasture diet, also play a role in the overall smell." "A diet rich in green leafy tissue and pasture can affect the levels of certain fatty acids, including linolenic acid, which can also contribute to the smell." "Lamb meat can smell strongly due to branch chain fatty acids, which increase with age and the lamb's diet. Specifically, the chemical 4-methylnonanoic acid, along with other compounds like 3-methylindole and 2,3-octanedione, contribute to the distinctive odor."[/quote]
