From experience, it seems to be like detecting the smell of ants. A genetic trait not present on everyone. To me, tofu smells rank, but sliced thin and after I add a splash of full salt soy sauce, it turns out delicious. My dad says the same happens to him.
And trust me, I have tried lots of types of tofu in my life, it is a staple in my diet.
It tastes a wee bit rancid, like burnt garlic. No thanks.
I never got this taste from tofu ever, any chance you maybe just had spoiled tofu…?
