Bhagavad-gita As It Is
BG Chapters 13 - 18
The decomposing foods give a bad odor, which often attracts people in this mode but repulses those in the mode of goodness.
BG 17.10, Purport: Foods in the mode of passion, which are bitter, too salty, or too hot or overly mixed with red pepper, cause misery by reducing the mucus in the stomach, leading to disease. Foods in the mode of ignorance or darkness are essentially those that are not fresh. Any food cooked more than three hours before it is eaten (except prasādam, food offered to the Lord) is considered to be in the mode of darkness. Because they are decomposing, such foods give a bad odor, which often attracts people in this mode but repulses those in the mode of goodness.
