Good catch. That's exactly what smelly farts mean. Sulfur exists in many foods - vegetables, meats, beans, eggs... even watermelon. As the foods are digested some of the sulfur is joined into hydrogen sulfide gas - rotten egg gas. The same stuff you smell near volcanoes.
As a meaningless aside, that's why I call those "volcanic farts" - not to be gross, either.
