Potatoes never go bad. They just start the process of turning into more potatoes.
potatoes definitely do rot and the smell is so horrific it can only be the results of failed potato genetics
Rotten potatoes smell somewhere between raw sewage and demon anus
The green dust is also toxic to breathe in.
I recently had the pleasure of shoveling a rotting bag of potatoes out of my pantry. Likely the worst smell I have ever witnessed, nothing compares.
Try slow cooking rancid beefribs for 3 days susevide then putting a rack in an air fryer to see if it 'might mask the stench.' Our neighbors were dry heaving. House smelled worse than a civil war hospital for weeks.
Also try burning the crap out of mole sauce for like 3 hours.
...exactly how stubborn are you about not throwing food out? 😄
Rotting onions compare.
Some potatoes went bad in my kitchen a few days ago, it smelled like actual human shit. Grim
It smells like a partially decomposed corpse. I don't know what a corpse smells like, but I believe them. It's awful.
