I just made my first batch of gel food since I set up my tank again last year. I had forgotten how bad this stuff smells!!! I swear, I can't go anywhere in the house that I can't smell it. If I've heard "Mom, that stuff stinks!" one time, I've heard it a dozen!

Not to mention, I made a royal mess in my kitchen making it. Yuck, now I've gotta go clean it up.

That stuff sure can stink hey? The last time I made it my family almost died from the reek. Even now when I take some out of the freezer I can't help but making this face

Just get a mask from your local doctors...lol...my last batch was just vegetables..mainly baby-food and fresh greens so I't wasn't that bad this time around

Veggie only sounds good right about now. The one that I made has the usual veggies, but also sardines and oysters. Disgusting!

On a better note, it seems like I did much better at making it this time around! The first time I made it, I guess I had too much liquid in it and it didn't quite gel like it should have. The cubes wanted to break up when I put them in the tank. I can't wait to try this batch out and see how they like it.

A doctor's mask sounds like just what I need. Every time I open the fridge, the scent hits me in the face. My husband's gonna stroke when he gets home tomorrow night if I don't get rid of the smell.
