[TheForge] 5. Re: Hand cream

[Peter Fels & Phoebe Palmer]

Bag Balm is another udder cream..as it were.
They often contain ( or used to) antibiotics..which is dumb as it 
encourages antibiotic resistance in bacteria.
I suggest eating much more greasy foods....with your hands...then don't 
wash them.
