I'm looking for some orange latex gloves. I've found a few diffrent colors but could not find orange. Any help would be great. Thanks
 
Nitrile gloves are a better bet. Latex has the potential to cause allergic reactions.
 
Speaking of gloves ... What's the big deal with "powder free"? Not knowing any better, I wish mine had powder to help get over my sticky, sweaty cooking hands. Do people worry that the powder will get on the food?

I think its an allergen thing

Latex gloves are the devil!

Seriously though, I have an extreme allergic reaction to latex, and I am starting to find out that latex allergies are very common in the world these days. I have almost died a few times because I wasn't aware that my food was prepared with latex gloves, thank goodness for epi-pens. So if using latex make sure the people you are feeding are aware that you used latex gloves.

I have had to pass up BBQ many of times because of latex!!!
 
I skip the rubber gloves and just buy food prep plastic gloves from Sam's. If you must go with rubber the new standard is nitrile gloves. I'm a custodian at a local school and all we use anymore is the nitrile to avoid any contamination from the latex, which a decent amount of kiddos have an allergy of.
 
You guys have recommendations for good nitrile gloves or are they all about the same?
