Online Answer
If your food has bitter, metallic, or soapy aromas, or just smells "off," you're probably dealing with rancidity. Another easy way to tell if there may be rancidity: If your bottle of oil feels sticky. That's oil residue undergoing polymerization, says LaBorde—an advanced stage of the rancidity process.
