CleanFingers is a new product that can help decrease the transmittal of disease by food service workers. CleanFingers is a strip which could be made of a translucent plastic or polyvinyl with pockets at each end that cover only two or three fingers, i.e., the thumb, index, and, if needed, the middle finger. Typical plastic gloves take two hands to put on the gloves, which take extra time, and removing the gloves also requires the use of both hands. This extra effort is inconvenient when the food handler is in a hurry, which results in the continued use of soiled gloves or the gloves not being used at all. The primary difference between CleanFingers and the conventional plastic service gloves is that "CleanFingers" are easier to put on by using only the two or three fingers to be covered and can be just as quickly and easily removed. The convenience of using CleanFingers will encourage service providers to use them and change them often especially when they are in a hurry. For good gripping, CleanFingers may have "dimples and pimples" embossed on each strip allowing the user's fingers and thumbs some traction while they are inside the pockets as well as providing a grip on the plate or glass.
