Coworker here is eating pineapple and the aroma has spread around as is extremely pleasant! Much appreciated after other guys bringing stinking crap like tuna fish sandwiches....

Definitely this. That's why I bring my own stinky food to the office to piss my co-worker off. It's like a stink off @ noon daily.

French fries and hamburgers always smell good when coming from someone elses cubes. It's the healthy shit that always smells like something just died in the microwave.

I have numerous Indian coworkers. Their food always smells delicious though usually I don't get a chance to smell it (they take it to the break room downstairs).

Microwave popcorn always smells better in the office for some reason.

Some bastard at my previous job used to cook something in the microwave that smelled like cat food, except turned up to 11. It was fucking rank.

it's usually b/c i'm hungry at about that time.

but if someone burns the microwave popcorn that's a real lingering sucky smell.

I honestly don't like any 'regular' food smell at my office. Everyone passes by my desk going to the kitchen/break room, and nothing appeals to me. Only so much you can do with a microwave...

extremely burnt popcorn at 3:30. smells terrible, but the person in my office makes it daily at this time like clockwork, and it's also my departure time so i love it!

I worked at a call center that had a small microwave and fridge in one of the cubes on the floor. We liked it because we didn't have to go all the way to the cafeteria. We liked it until someone decided to microwave fish. :frown:
