    Probably just a result of fermentation. It hasn’t been selected against because it’s not a problem.

    I don’t see how genetically engineering humans for farts that smell like baking bread would be a problem for modern humans, do you?

      I could think of somethings but don’t want to. I am pretty sure nature wants us to associate that smell to bad for a reason.
