"The smell of duck cooking in butter."
Surprisingly specific  is duck cooking in anything else ok? Is this linked to a particular experience - apparently we can make associations with food or drink that we ate or even sometimes just smelled linked with having a bad stomach and our brain learns to associate that smell/taste with nausea to protect us.

I think it's more so the smell of butter melting in a pan. But that only happens when Mr cooks duck so I've put the two of them together in a "yack" file in my brain. I don't like duck either anyway  |

Me too. I have Emetophobia, which is an irrational fear of being sick, or seeing someone being sick
Coughing up phlegm also does it for me
