Like in the question, do cooked leeks cause bad body odour and breath?

Yes, but only to the extent that all alliums do. Leeks, like onions and garlic, are high in sulfur, and sulfur compounds can contribute to unpleasant body odors.

  • It is only unpleasant if both parties don't smell like it. If all people in the house like garlic then the unpleasant smell just becomes the 'smell'. – Neil Meyer Mar 15 '23 at 07:27
