  • At my work some of the chefs wear latex gloves when chopping onions & garlic or working with fish. Personally I don't bother and don't think I usually smell that bad, but now you've got me worried, I will have to get DH to sniff my hands after work tonight and make sure I"m not too whiffy :D

  • stainless steel soap DOES work
    i have had mine for years

    but washing your hands under cold water, and using a teaspoon as "a bar of soap" works equally well and 100% effective

    they are under £1.50 delivered for the soap

    i hate gadjets & gimmicks
    i have none in my kitchen
    its too busy to have machines & items that dont work

    i'm SO convinced about these OP, if you dont find it 100% i will buy it from you covering all costs

    Exactly what I do. Could never understand why people buy those stainless steel *soaps* when they have stainless steel right in front of them in the shape of taps and/or sinks!
  • washing your hands with cold water and salt also works
