yes, Tom, I agree with you but there are some who will never find it acceptable and can not get themselves to do it. I do not usually use gloves, but do when I have a cut or scrape on my hand when cooking for others, for obvious reasons It is a good option rather than a spoon, because that just does not work effectively! :) Heidi -----Original Message----- From: cookinginthedark-boun...@acbradio.org [mailto:cookinginthedark-boun...@acbradio.org] On Behalf Of Tom Dickhoner Sent: 31 January 2012 12:02 To: cookinginthedark@acbradio.org Subject: [CnD] Getting Your Hands In The Food
Many blind people have a problem putting their hands in food. Good gave us hands for a purpose. Getting your hands in the food is the only way that you can tell if your ingredients are mixed together properly. I have used rubber gloves many times. I don't like them. A dermotolgist that I saw said it this way. "This means that if you use the gloves, you are blind with your hands." This is a little crude, but it makes the point. To anyone who is afraid to put his or her hands in the food, do it and don't feel imbarrassed. As long as you thoroughly wash your hands before and after you prepare the food, you will be fine. _______________________________________________ Cookinginthedark mailing list Cookinginthedark@acbradio.org http://acbradio.org/mailman/listinfo/cookinginthedark _______________________________________________ Cookinginthedark mailing list Cookinginthedark@acbradio.org http://acbradio.org/mailman/listinfo/cookinginthedark
