I guess that's be better than thining that your coffee smells "fishy" due to the same bacterial by-products that makes fish stink once it's no longer fresh.
Tuna in a can, according to my nose. And it may have something to do with the quality of the coffee - I don't think I've ever noticed it occurring in, say, a diner. Though that may be because it can't compete with the smell of bacon (which seems to smell equally fantastic regardless of its technical "quality")
I dunno, but I wonder if that means coffee can help prevent Alzheimer's disease too...

I have no explanation to offer, but ain't it weird? Espresso is especially likely to cause this olfactory confusion, I've noticed.

Tuna in a can? Or unprocessed like a broiled tuna steak? Hm.
I think I've noticed a resemblance between the smell of tuna fish *salad* (mayo, no salad dressing-gag) and coffee brewing before.
What brand coffee? I brew maxwell house, so there's the quality of the coffee factor. I think you're taste in coffee's a bit more refined though.
All I know is that if I can't drink enough coffee...by the end of the day you would think I'd been afflicted by Alzheimers.
what? huh?
coffee and fish, smells like brain food.

To me, coffee once in a while smells like a tuna on toast or a tunamelt and it makes me hungry! Try having both at the same time!
