Wash your face. It might not be your hand that smells.
If worse comes to worse you could always amputate.

It's definitely the hand. The other smells like soap. I should look into prosthetic hands...or odorless onion.

I’d like a sandwich.

Try dish soap?

It seems like time was the only solution for it. There's still faint hints now, but after a day of shaking, eating, and such, the hand has recessed its' odor. Thanks for your help.
And now for something completely different...

I love onions! Why wouldn't you want your hand to smell like one?

thats why they have bars of metal soap in chef kitchens

Do they eventually start to stink?
I can't imagine all the different smells there would be eventually.

Maybe if you knew the science, you wouldn't be so snippy about it, baby.
