A couple of years ago, I had a plague of rats living in some nearby vaults.
After setting half a dozen traps, which would all be full each morning, with smaller and smaller victims, I eventually got rid of them and didn't see any for months.
But the other day I saw a couple, and put two and two together: Both times the rats appeared shortly after I had made vegetable soup by boiling a bag of dried mixed vegetables.
Obviously when you pour the water from this down the drain, the rats (with sense of smell many times better than a human) can smell it from half a mile away and follow the scent "upstream". To them, the smell of dried peas and grain must be heavenly.

Would you live in a house made of chocolate ?
Would you live in a house made of chocolate, that smelled of strawberries and cream and freshly toasted bread ?
Yesterday am, I made mrs EO some bacon butts and coffee in bed. Now the missus likes her bacon crispy, even burned.
So I did the honours and we had a nice brekkie, then went out shopping.
when we came back , there were a couple of alien cats and a dog sniffing around, our four cats were going loopy and the house smelled like a well-done bacon butty.
It smelled ok to me, but to the animals it must have been heaven - like living in a house with chocolate walls
