Much of the time it is because of well water and the "hard" qualities of well water such as rust / lime etc...

If that doesn't work, you may need to clean or replace the pipes, depending on how old they are.

The smell of bleach in cold tap water could be due to increased levels of chlorine used in the water treatment process to disinfect the water.

If the smell persists, it's best to contact your local water utility to investigate further.

Why does my cold tap water smell like onions not rotten eggs not sulfur but onions and it's only my cold?
If you live in an area with a lot of snakes, what you may be experiencing is a contamination of your water. Some snakes emit an onion-like odor when scared (like a skunk does). What makes this potentially dangerous is that you may also be ingesting their feces as well, which can contain Salmonella and/or tapeworm eggs. You definitely want to get this checked out by a professional.
