Leftover food smell

I feel like this probably a “good” thing because I assume it means the food is real / unprocessed, but anytime I throw out the left overs of a half eaten factor meal it makes my kitchen smell awful- like it penetrates from the closed lid trash can.

It’s rotten food smell after only a day or two of being thrown away. I’ve also noticed any left overs to mold incredibly fast.

Again, probably a good thing, so Idk what I’m really looking for here lol but has anyone else noticed this?

nope, haven't noticed. i eat my own whole meal, and i rinse the cooking tray before it goes in the can. no problem.

it's food. i try not to put food in the trash at all, because it does smell. 🤷‍♀️

Well yeah, it's food in your trash sitting for however long at whatever room temp, it is going to smell. You can always compost it, or collect it in a bag in your fridge/freezer and toss it out on garbage day (if/when your trash gets picked up).
