I spent the day making a planter box out of cedar, and it doesn't smell like food even a little.

who smells wood and thinks "you know what? I want to slap that pine tree on my pancake"?

Maybe not a pine tree, but I love birch beer. My parents cut down an old birch tree years ago, and it smelled AWESOME!

I'm not sure I agree about the smell of wooe, but the cambium of many different tree species is perfectly edible. Have at it, my friend!

This should be an unpopular opinion instead, because almost no one associates the smell with a desire to eat it.

Call me weird, but I have never once salivated to the smell of any wood.
