My mom works at a vet's office. They got this stuff that you spray in the air and it kills all smells really well. I forget what it's called though, but its normally used with animals.

ps. no it's not Lysol. It's some special thing in a normal pump bottle thinger.

Ionic breeze kills all odor!

FeBreeze. Spray it up your nose.

Light scented candles.

use a vent hood if you have it. open windows for fresh air. use Ozium or like odor remover

Reminds me of a joke:

Why don't lesbians cook?






They prefer to eat out.

Cook food that doesn't stink. No one complains if the kitchen smells like GOOD food.

 

[Feldenak]

Beeswax candles.

Vent is a good idea.

Also open windows and/or doors.

Open a window and point a fan towards it while you cook.

my stupid apartment's vent hood doesnt go anywhere... it actually throws the air BACK into the apt..

A lot of places have those. It does have a filter in it that will help draw grease and things out of the air, so it's better than nothing.

But I'm with notfred. Cook food that doesn't stink. When I make a curry, I pretty much expect my house to smell like it for a week.

LOL same here. I got one that's integrated into the microwave. It's a retarded ventilation system

Febreeze? really works?

Do you fry a lot? I can't stand going into someone's place when they fry all the time. Gives the whole place a funk smell.

I love curry, but my wife doesnt want me to make anything with strong smell anymore, no deep frying too, my next house will have a professional exhaust that vent to the outside!

I deep fried once, and the whole place stinks!

I agree. Yes, most people here on ATOT hate the Ionic Breeze, but it works wonders as an odour killer. Whenever I'm cooking strong odour foods, I make sure the Ionic Breeze is sitting close by.

cover them up by farts

 

[seanws]

open a window. turn on the fan above the stove. light a few scented candles. all seem to work for me

..don't you have a canopy over the range wit a fan sucking the fumes out?? I eat a lot of salmon too..used to eat lots of red snapper which tastes great..but has a very powerful odor hangover that my vent fan can't overcome..so I cook snapper on a small propane range on the back porch..
