After a shift smokers fingers would be as clean as non-smokers!!!!

So, has that put you off bread? think about all the bakers in your local bakery, think about picking up your fresh bread in the supermarket, how many of the workers smoke? Have they been handling the bread dough?

I have NEVER smoked, and it repulses me. And I must admit, if I drive past a restaurant or pub and I see the kitchen staff outside puffing away, I rarely give them my custom.

So, if you're customers want to get rid, tell them to make up a batch of bread. The packet stuff is fine, as long as they are kneading it and shaping it.

kinda gross.....actually REALLY GROSS....but I like bread and will continue as I could never stop eating it ....and just hope for the best....

I've seen so many websites asking this! I havn't seen one that gives my method...

Its.. Strange, but it works!

...Ready?... Most simple product to use!..

Toothpaste. Rub it into the affected areas, leave it for 5-10 minutes (Seems like ages with sticky stuff on your fingers, I know.) then wash off, then scrub your fingers and you should be sorted!

Enjoy!

Extra strong mints work quite well - just rub them over the stains.
