TIL the smell in my kitchen was my garbage disposal, and it took 11 days to figure out

I kept blaming the fridge and scrubbed it twice, threw out $40 of food, and even pulled the whole thing away from the wall in my little kitchen in Boise. Day 11 I ran the disposal with hot water and a lemon peel, and the smell vanished in about two minutes. Does anyone else have a cleaning mystery that turned out to be one dumb thing you kept walking right past?
