Cooking smells - please tell me I'm right and my husband is wrong?!

[ItsThisOneThing]

I hate cooking smells in the house. HATE. Especially things like bacon, sausage or burgers. My instinct is to fling the windows open wide, open the back door and put on the extractor fans. I obviously close the doors into the kitchen too, to reduce the smell going to the rest of the house.

My husband says if you open the windows and door it causes the smell to drift under the doors to the rest of the house, so he only closes the doors to the rest of the house and puts on the extractor fans. Keeps the windows and doors shut.

This morning we had a constant cycle of me opening the window and him closing it again. These are the big issues in our relationship ;)

Who is right here?? Please tell me it's me, I hate being wrong 😆

So many good ideas, thank you! And also I think I'm right on needing to open the window so even better 😆

Loads of people cooking outside, great idea. May need a gazebo since it rains rains all the time here.

Cooking hair is the worst, ruins my day!

@yumscrumfatbum I'm not a fan of fish so don't have that problem - maybe I subconsciously know it's just too whiffy for me to cope with 😱

I love a chicken or veg curry but would usually do takeaway for curry as the number of ingredients pushes me over the edge for home cooking 😂

@OutPinked I'm with you, don't get the obsession with it. I do love a sausage though

Had to come back to this thread. Thought of it on Wednesday morning at work. My year 8 class come to me after food technology. They all stink of cooking 😭😭

@AhoyAhoy Torture! Sprinkle them all in shake and vac?
