When I smell maple syrup and bacon,I think of a holiday I had in the US, when I catch a whiff of Nenuco I think of the spainish students on the bus during the summer, pine needles Christmas,etc.Now some smells can trigger negative memories from your childhood especially,say for example if you where repeatedly beaten by your nanny, and say she came from a certain South American country,this could explain Anons' peculiar reaction to Brazilians....
