Sweat is odorless until it mixes with bacteria..Maybe your friend could carry some antibacterial wash to use until the bath or shower is available..Lots of people joke about their feet having the "corn chip" smell..It is just bacteria working on the sweat..I am sure your friend is fine..:}

I guess you haven't heard the term frito feet. http://t2.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcRJhJC1Uyp...
Your sweat glands produce odorless sweat but it might be a fungus, bacteria, or other skin problem. Dogs get this too... my dog's paws smell like frito (cornchips) look it up

honestly I don't think there is anything to worry about, I could just be the way they simply smell. lol. if you get too worried about it just call a doctor and ask, they will know best..
