I have read this in at least one other source that was talking about how ladies of King Henry VIII"s court were granted one gallon of beer each per day & it said that many noble women would sometimes just pee where they stood. Game of Thrones mirrors this well when Tyrion complains that the city smells of sh#t.
Being a man of great wealth, Henry had a ton of food brought into his palace. More food than people needed to eat. Because of this, there was often a ton of rotting food left around to permeate the place.
