I live in oregon and just to the north is a city called camas, which has a paper factory that is very stinky. when visiting my grandma we would have to pass it, and my parents would say "smells like the camas plant"....so i was under the impression that camas was an actual stinky plant that the city was named after. It wasn't till i was an adult that i found out - there is no stinky camas plant other than the factory
