My old roommate said my late night cooking was the problem, so I changed one small thing

I used to cook full meals at midnight in our Oakland apartment and my roommate finally snapped one night and said the smell of onions was keeping her up, not the noise. I started doing all my chopping and cooking before 9pm and just reheating stuff later, which sounds obvious but I genuinely never thought about the smell part. Has anyone else had a roommate complain about something you totally didn't expect, like just the smell of food?
