Meritline has the Stainless Steel Soap for $2.85 - $0.85 off with coupon code MLCK412119101240AL1 [800 uses] = $2 with free shipping. Absorbs strong odors such as garlic, fish, and onion from your hands all without the use of soap.
This is how people speculate how this may work, "...the sulfur from the onion/garlic/fish would be attracted to and bind with one or more of the metals in stainless steel. Formation of such compounds is what makes stainless steel stainless, after all. Onions and garlic contain amino acid sulfoxides, which form sulfenic acids, which then form a volatile gas (propanethiol S-oxide), which forms sulfuric acid upon exposure to water. These compounds are responsible for burning your eyes while cutting onions and also for their characteristic scent. If the sulfur compounds bind to the steel, then the odor is removed from your fingers..."
Sticking stainless steel soap in a sock is much more effective than using regular soap. Granted the bruising is worse but it does make a better weapon.
this is a joke right?
Maybe it peels your skin off?
Great for prison.
Seriously though, stainless steel is great for getting the smell of onions and garlic off of your hands. It really works well.
I prefer soap that's made out of soap.

How about sticking one of these in your doughnut to de-smell the escaping gas?
You can also just wipe your wet hands on the faucet for the same effect (removing stink).
Imagine how noisy the prison showers would be if they replaced all the soap with these.
