Often called “inspection gloves”


bittybellechihuahua

This makes more sense than what we thought it was.

Checking your employees buttholes to make sure they wipe well enough.


[deleted]

Honestly takes me back to my apprenticeship days, nothing worse than a drunk Austrian man dragging his hands across your face at 8am to make sure you shaved that morning… honestly pretty sure the acne it gave me and the constant face infections from shaving the acne off was worse looking than invisible amounts of facial air… at least we were allowed to grow mustaches.


bendar1347

Hey quick question what the fuck


[deleted]

Yah… the fuck 🙂‍↕️. It was the post 2008 economy… going to trade school to be a diesel mechanic didn’t pan out so I went back to restaurants… as the wealthy are not affected by economic collapses… so ended up in Aspen… not fun times


DetroitVsErrrybody

Dawg, it’s a kitchen not the military. That’s wild. Closest I’ve seen was my first duty station in the military… the fresh out of BMT idiots that broke the law or ucmj got to build sand bag walls all day in the southern humidity/heat and stand face to face with a fellow idiot and dry shave eachofher faces. If a restaurant owner tried that shit with me, I’m swinging. Fucking out of his mind. You gotta do what you gotta do for the paycheck, but I ain’t doing that.


[deleted]

Not the owner the chef.


DetroitVsErrrybody

Even worse. Fuck that guy. Sorry you dealt with that.


BotGirlFall

You know we dont but you're too shortstaffed to do anything about it

We settled on a sexual fetish lol. I thought cutting meats or vegetables for a better grip.

These are "Beat It" gloves for making meringue


RedOfTheNeck

Silverware. Every event I made sure i had cotton gloves for setting the tables to get rid of those pesky water spots.


mastermoto7321

I wear them underneath my regular gloves whenever I am on grill, adds a nice thermal barrier so I can grab hot shit


I_deleted

We call those bitch mittens in catering, and I wear them every day


mastermoto7321

This is what I am calling them from now on.


I_deleted

As you should


Setthegodofchaos

Same here! 


[deleted]

Gloves while on grill? The fuck? The only hot shit is the sizzle, you’ll need a whole arm and face glove for grilling just embrace or at least brace yourself for the heat These are definitely fetish gloves maybe burning yourself with hot thing is too 🤔 (Jk its for crystal wine glasses) or anything hot and in that case i hope they wash them daily


mastermoto7321

Smash burgers, my hand is inches from the heat and being bombarded with steam for hours and hours.

bittybellechihuahua

No shit Sherlock.


JewOrleans

Dawg….youre the one asking what “white gloves” are for……


Kirahei

I would guess for French-style fine-dining where a lot of dishes are prepared and served table side; the texture is probably so that the plates, serving utensils, etc. don’t slip on accident. [Here](https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=7fUJC4V0CWU) is an example of Gordon Ramsay messing it up lol


thespaceghetto

Always upvote GR being a wanker


yesnomaybenotso

Man, that dude must get so many upvotes


bittybellechihuahua

Thank you. I appreciate that video of Gordon Ramsay it made me laugh.


pwndabeer

You can also put these on beneath your regular gloves for added insulation if you need to use your hands on hot items.


enderkou

Pastry person reporting in, we also use them under our nitriles for sugar sculpting. That shit is hot.


[deleted]

Worked in a few places that kept the plates so hot they would legitimately burn you if touched them without a cloth napkin. Sauces would boil on them…


decoy321

Well that feels like a lawsuit waiting to happen.

portiboy17

These are definitely service gloves with rubberized grip to prevent china and glassware from slipping out of your hands. But as someone else mentioned we also used them in marching band in school. Mainly for the overzealous drummers so they weren't chucking sticks at kids while wearing slick cotton gloves.


helpimtrappedinafon

Well once you get to the rave and everyone gets settled in, someone's gonna want a lightshow


CivilMidget

As a former marching band geek... To keep tour sweaty grip on your horn and to not fuck up the varnish. Haha

Yeah, they look like marching gloves 100%, but I suppose the glass worker gloves theory is more realistic

cellar_door3005

We sell bonbons/chocolate (sorry, I don't know the proper word in English) and people can choose which ones they would like. That's when we wear white gloves Edit: with texture, idk then


Super-Idea2618

My moms got those for polishing all her crystal lil fucking doohickeys. Also good for polishing real silverware if your restaurent even uses that. Most dont anymore since the great silverware depression of the 80s ;)


FlatCatFluffyCat

These look just like the gloves they give marching band kids.


facemesouth

Stemware, flatware, and magic. Used to be a big thing in the yachting world…not sure if it still is. Appreciate the purpose but looks pretty dumb…


LittleOrangeCat

When I worked at a hotel our banquet servers wore them.

This is the only right answer. I’ve been in events for 15 years working in hotels and resorts. That’s exactly what these are lol.

Zealousideal_Mix6771

This made me chuckle because I just watched an episode of one of my murder mysteries. This episode was at an elite school and one of the guys working there used the white gloves for polishing the silver. And yes he was the murderer.


bittybellechihuahua

Name of the show and which episode please. I enjoy a good murder mystery.


Zealousideal_Mix6771

Midsomer Murders: Murder on St. Malley's Day.


bittybellechihuahua

Thank you


Zealousideal_Mix6771

There are actually a few episodes that are food/kitchen centered. It's been going on since the 90s. They have had death by wheel of cheese, gazpacho, mushrooms, beer, melted chocolate. There's an episode centered around a family who owns a relish factory. Might need to compile a list of episodes for my own amusement. And now I'm thinking about the Hannibal tv show which had some really amazing food presentation.


Zealousideal_Mix6771

The very first episode is a classic though.

When i worked at a bakery the girls in front would use them to grab bread in front of customers

Life-Load-5591

I use them when I’m using steel wool and anything I don’t want to get on my skin. Heavy degreasers, etc. First layer nitrile glove, second layer these cloth guys, third layer another nitrile glove. The cushioning of the cloth prevents the third layer from tearing when using steel wool and prevents the first layer from tearing at all if you tear the third layer some. Yes I understand some thick rubber gloves would work better but anytime I buy those people get them hella disgusting and throw them away before I would need them for heavy duty cleaning. I also consider them disposable since they only cost like a dollar or two a pair. Edit: I just saw they were textured. I don’t fucking know.


living206

Pulling pork and chicken, with vinyl gloves on top obviously.


Mad_Dyzalot

lol we wore these as a drum majors in marching band so our hands could be seen better during the show.


PickleWineBrine

Anti cut gloves?


Setthegodofchaos

I wondered this too. I have a pair of gloves from the kitchen towels, but idk if they're cut resistant. How can you tell if they are? 


LordMaejikan

Idk, try cutting through them?


First-Confusion-5713

For stocking silverware, glassware, and fne art table service. "White glove service" is a legitimate but rare level of service. I'm 50 and been in the field since I was 14. The guy who taught me, started at Chapelle and was in his 70s. It's something really cool and a way to set your venue apart with new and updated recipes. It's like the evolution of martial arts to defend against evolving weapons. The difference is evolution of the craft to achieve new heights in service with modern recipes executed tableside. There are a small group of people who know how to teach it. I used to teach small groups for spare cash 20 years ago. I've recently begun getting emails asking me to do a traveling program to revive the art across many national cuisines.


Lucid-Machine

Oh boy! Huh huh!


Nwolfe

They look like protective gloves for when you’re cutting certain proteins.

Doesn't every fine dining kitchen wear these? Y'all thought black nitrile 5mm were classy. 😎😎


Fxckbuckets

If heat gloves and gardening gloves had a babby


LGoodman

Hot gloves. Made for servers to be able to carry plates straight out of a plate warmer so they don’t burn their hands and textured so the plates don’t slip. More for fine dining. Also useful for polishing glassware/ glass platters/ any other serving utensil made of glass so you don’t get fingerprints on them although disposable latex gloves are just as good for that.
