Do My Feet Smell Like Doritos?

The video explores why feet smell, often compared to foods like popcorn or Doritos. It explains that foot odor results from sweat interacting with bacteria on the skin, particularly those that metabolize leucine to produce isovaleric acid, a compound with a cheesy odor. This compound is also used in food flavoring, linking the smell of feet to certain snacks. To reduce foot odor, regular exercise is recommended as it decreases amino acid loss in sweat.
