    Ever had trouble getting that smell off your hands? friend of mine said try used coffee grounds...grab a handful and mush them around then wash with soap...works like a charm

    Yep, we used to do that in the restaurant to get rid of shrimp smell. Ever peeled/ deveined shrimp by the 100's?? It's rather boring, and smelly.
