When you consume a rotten egg, your digestive system reacts quickly. Bacteria like Salmonella release toxins that irritate the stomach and intestines. This irritation causes inflammation, leading to diarrhea and vomiting as your body tries to eliminate the harmful substance.

In addition, spoiled eggs often contain sulfur compounds that produce a strong “rotten” smell. While these compounds themselves are not always dangerous, they are a sign that the egg has decomposed and may no longer be safe to eat.
