Don't Mix Your Hand Lotion into Your Food.

You may have read the title of this tip and said, "Duh!". But think about this another way. You have a habit of putting lotion on your hands after you wash them. Then you proceed to the kitchen and prepare a chicken, or cut vegetables or mix some kind of dough. Many lotions contain gluten or nut oils or soy oils. The lotions gets mixed into food, even in trace amounts, this could cause a problem for someone with those allergies. So if you are cooking for someone with celiac disease, or any allergies (esp. nut, gluten, coconut, or soy...), don't take chances, wear gloves or wash your hands thoroughly and skip the lotion until you are finished cooking.
