Question

I Got A NeW jOb at a farm OUT in ThE cOuntry!! ANd tHe first Day there i was freakin latE!! So my BoSs HaNk made me pick this small patch of onions with my bare hands!!!! I have been scrubbing them really hard with soap and water but the smell hasn't left for like 2 weeks!!! WHAT DO I DO?!?!?!?!?!

Answer 1

Rub your hands with a stainless steal spoon (cheap flatware) idk why but there is something in the metal that neutralizes the smell.

Answer 2

I would use salt and cold water first. Then you rinse with lemon juice. I'm being serious, it works!

Answer 3

If it's still there after 2 weeks,then it has to be something else making you smell. Try white vinegar.

Answer 4

Don't panic there are several things you can do.

- Go to home supply stores and ask someone to help you find a special odor covering soap (It doesn't always work, like you said)

- Lemon Juice is always a great choice, most people don't have that either.

- A little less convenient, but still works: You get some Bicarb and turn it into paste and apply

Good Luck : )

Answer 5

Here's a WikiHow on removing the smell of onions from hands.

http://www.wikihow.com/Remove-Onion-Smel...

They say start with salt, then try soaking your hands in tomato juice (like the bath you use to get skunk smells off pets). Next try rubbing your hands on something made of stainless steel while under running water. They actually sell stainless steel bars of "soap" for odor removal. If that still isn't working, make a paste of baking soda and water and rub that on your hands.

Good luck!
