Foods like buffalo wings and crawfish/seafood seem to stay on my hand for at least 3 washes. I use salt sometimes but it doesnt seem to work that well.

Any ideas? or am i going to have pluckers smell on me all night?

I don't mind my hands smelling like onions/garlic.

As long as the women don't complain

Rubbing my hands with crushed up saltines works for me after eating boiled crawfish, but I haven't tried it for anything else...

Rubbing your hands with a piece of stainless steel under cold running water will get rid of most food odors. My wife has a small piece of metal by the kitchen sink - works great. Could use a spoon or even the metal kitchen sink itself.

My mother-in-law gave me a stainless steel thing shaped like a bar of soap. I don't know why it works.

toothpaste works for smell and the burning in your hands after eating crawfish.

For a real thrill, chop up some hot peppers. Don't wash your hands at all. Then, later in the day pop your contact lenses in.

For crawfish, grind up crackers in your hand. The pumice-type affect cleans your hands immediately.

If I don't love how the food smells then I probably didn't cook it right.

i have a lemon oil based soap that has a ton of salt in it as an exfoliant scrub. i used it after a crawfish boil this weekend to get the smell off. i havent found anything that works better.
