A meat odor that not everyone smells

Boar taint is an olfactory defect perceived in certain pork meats. Sensitivity to androstenone varies according to individuals, with women being more receptive to it than men, while 20 to 40 % of people are totally anosmic to it depending on the country. This variability is added to the fact that this problem only appears in 5 to 10 % of non-castrated males.
