In one of my first jobs I worked in IT for a printers who would sometimes create scratch and sniff cards for clients.

I wonder if she worked at Jorvik or a smaller variant. I remember visiting Jorvik as a kid and it was by far the most scent heavy historical museum I’ve ever visited (although I’ve experienced a couple of much smaller scale variants on a similar theme).
Jenny is hard not to like. Super intelligent and knowledgeable as well as incredibly good looking. However she did use an Americanism and say 'poop' ugh

The instant she says "It's not a good smell," I got it at the same time Becky and Tom got it. Sometimes hints are big. Also I like the "Yes, absolutely," that Jenny says at the end, making it clear she's responding to some edited-out comment by Tom to the tune of "Hey, can you restate the answer so we don't go out on my "lemon mines" joke?

My sister got COVID and lost her sense of smell. A while later, a neighbor came by for something, came into her kitchen, and said "you have a natural gas leak". (She got the leak repaired, and her sense of smell mostly came back after some months.)
Several years ago there was an issue with the suppliers for the “gas smell” and a number of towns on the south coast had the smell wafting over for a day or so.
My scratch and sniff anecdote is about the fourth movie in the Spy Kids series. They advertised it was "4D", because they had 3D glasses and gave out scratch and sniff cards, and they would indicate in the movie when to scratch a certain smell. A friend of mine went to see that, and he said that most of the smells were of literal crap. In particular, the first smell was when a dog pooped, if I recall correctly.
That smell they add, is most definitely one of those "Little goes a long way" things. I used to have a teacher who used to work at a gas provider and took some "empty" jerry cans with him. Was rinsing em out in his yard, and they shut down the whole neighborhood, due to the overwhelming gas smell.
I had loss of the sense of smell due to covid. The very first thing I smelled as I recovered was a skunk. Only time in my life I was so happy to smell a skunk. I kept taking huge snuffs because it really did smell wonderful to me at that time.
3 decades ago someone stole a 44 gallon drum of the liquid added to gas in Darwin Australia Power and water Authority. When they discovered it was not petrol or diesel, just horrid smelling liquid . they dumped it triggering a look for a gas leak in a area that had no gas pipeline.
i *just* learned today that if you see a whole lot of turkey vultures hovering over an area where a natural gas pipeline runs, it means there's probably a leak in the line. Turkey vultures have an *extraordinary* sense of smell-- they can pick up the scent of carrion from over a mile away. And mercaptan (the smelly gas additive) smells like rotting things. Ergo... vulture magnet.
My father worked at a print works, and had to send letters to their staff when they did some scratch and sniff products (I think they were for draw linings) as they were getting accused by their wives of possibly playing the field....
When I was young I had a book of "blunders and bungles", which mentioned the addition of the smell to natural gas. Apparently the company in question hadn't bothered to let any of their customers know when they started adding the smell. Then they got heaps of complaints from customers who had ripped up their floorboards trying to find the source of this stench.
My old Scout leader was an environmental health officer. He told a story when he worked in the Corby area of closing down the steel works because of gas leaks, which turned out to be old barrels of sodium mercaptan leaking. That is the chemical added to propane and hence the concern
Many towns in Canada only less than 20 years abo got access to natural gas by pipe. Previously they had tanks that needed refilling. Though everyone was familiar with BBQ gas.
We once had a gas leak here. Was 2 kilometers away but sounded like a freight train going by. They broke a 100 bars long distance pipeline with a trencher. There was sirens all over the town for the whole day and the pipeline kept on roaring for two hours after they shut it down. But no smell.
No fire? They were lucky then. I once heard/read about something like that in Belgium, except there was a fire in that case. Extremely hot. Terrible happening. People died.
Super common in the US. I've gotten well over a dozen in my life. It totally blew my mind as a kid when my dad showed me one and explained how the smell was specifically added to natural gas for obvious safety reasons.
I want to know which province this was, now! Okay, looked it up. Manitoba. I've never lived there, so there's no chance I would have just tossed this out and missed out on this experience 🤣
You bring up a warehouse that smells like gas leak, the answer is YES. I guessed this Lateral right at the title because, there was a story back in the 80s where they first tried the scratch and sniff in New York(not sure). The cards weren't very good and they naturally leaked out the smell. So people would leave their mail on their tables and would smell gas. The gas company received hundreds of calls about gas leaks. They must have perfected the cards.
I'm almost certain I once delivered scratch-and-sniff cards like the ones in the question along with a newspaper round I had as a teen. This would have been the early 1990s. As I recall, It was a _very_ well known British company that ultimately supplied them. The newspaper was a free local paper so literally every house in walking distance of where I lived got one. Anyway, that has to be how I knew the answer to this question, because it didn't feel like a brilliant guess so much as it did a sense of deja vu.
My best before the answer: It was a scentless scratch and sniff for gas leaks. The only company's that would cold-sell in the mail are usually utility or home-themed companies and it's a very effective and way to remind people that gas is odorless.
In the US in the 90s there was a show called Living Single. They put a scratch and sniff card...I want to say in the weekly newspaper and as you watch the episode there was an on screen prompt to smell the card. The smells correlated with what was happening on screen. This just reminded me of that...😂
I remember when I got this from Enbridge in the mail. Hilarious to see it on here! They did this several years before the pandemic but it would have been hilarious if they did it again in 2020
2:25 - actually should correspond to more people eating Ben and Jerry's ice cream I suspect. Part of the reason they're so texture focused unlike other ice creams is that one of the two (don't remember which one) is naturally anosmic.
@@DasGanon Honestly not much, just a couple of times. I've had it for many decades, so those around me know about it. The one I get more often is "Surely you can smell something?" in an unbelieving tone. I respond sarcastically with "Ah yes, because the blind and deaf can really see and hear something." 😁
@@economicprisoner True but often not enough to distinguish what it is by sight or sound alone. I could have made this clearer but I meant it's not an assumption most people make from the get go. For example, you don't assume a blind person simply has blurry vision when you're told they're blind. 🙂
Something that was missing from this is that people don't know what rotten eggs smell like anymore, due to improvements in refrigeration and other such technologies, so the traditional comparison you'd make to tell people what a gas leak smells like is meaningless. Hence why they felt the need to ship the smell out to people directly.
You've got a point - that's how I first learned 'how rotten eggs smell' is from smelling some propane that was accidentally released into the air. My da was hooking up a camp stove and one of the valves for the burners was open. I commented on the smell and he explained how they add it to natural gas and propane as a safety feature. It would be years later before I encountered an actual rotten egg...
Me too! The question editor missed an opportunity to add "and what problem did it cause?" People called to report gas leaks because the cards were so convincing. That might have been a different time that a gas company pulled this stunt, though - I imagine it's been done many times.
I bet the gas company had a known leak or leaks, based on consumption versus billing, and couldn't figure out where it was due to lack of flow monitoring equipment. So they came up with a scheme to get a large number of population to find the leak(s) for them.
I thought at first "It's not a good smell,", that it was referencing the John Waters movie Polyester, which did have a scratch and sniff card associated with some of the scenes. That was not two years ago, alas.
My worked at an oil refinery and one day he had propane odorant spilled on him. The stuff is really concentrated, to the point that they add only 1 pint to a railcar of propane. It is a chemical responsible for a large part of the smell of feces and skunk smell When dad had it spilled on him, mom had to burn his clothes and he tried everything to get the smell out of his skin, but it was 2 weeks before it was completely gone. Another time an unliked supervisor got a brand new company car and he was rubbing everyone's face in it being a real asshole. Someone put a cap full of propane odorant in it, and even after everything inside the car was removed and the inside sand blasted the car was still underivable. They ended up having to scrap the car.
This one had me doubting myself because my first thought was natural gas, but then said two years ago and was like "oh right covid". I only knew natural gas could be a scratch and sniff because it's basically the same as the prank "fart" stickers that were popular around the "garbage pail kids" era. Fun bonus, there's now a smell test for Alzheimer's screening
My first thought was marketing for a product that has a specific smell associated with it, as i remember reading that Disneyland generates smells in key locations throughout the park to influence behaviour, like making people feel hungry etc... which i guess means I was half right
Not to completely disregard the relationship between loss of taste and having COVID, but one of the main reasons why many sweets don't taste the same as you remember is because they changed the recipe to use cheaper ingredients including swapping out real cane sugar for high fructose corn syrup. This is the main reason why Haribo gummy bears and cola bottles taste so much better than typical North American made brands and your Mexican Coke or Pepsi is better than the U.S. versions.

I actually saw "Polyester" in a theater when we got the scratch n'sniff card to smell at specific points in the story.
Of course, after the first demo sniff (rose) most of the others were not as nice.

When I was a kid I lived in the Minneapolis area, and our local natural gas service sent out scratch-n-sniff mailings. This was in the late 80s.
I instantly guessed this one correctly the moment I saw the question, and I feel so incredibly smart right now.
