DT's smells bad?
I just bought my first bottle of DT's and it smells like raw sewage. Is that normal or has it gone bad? It was refrigerated in the store.

It shouldn't have that type of odor. Is it a rotten egg smell? If so, I'd ditch it if it were mine. Sorry.

Not good - sounds like it is time for a return trip to the store.

Not good. I would return it promptly for a fresh batch or a refund.

On the bottle, it says it should smell fresh and not like "rotten eggs" Sounds like it was not refridgerated in shipping.
