Let me also say that the Tide pen isn't working. I look worse than Brett Rogers will on Saturday. What should I use? White out?
-
cough cough..,..sick day.....
Or just wear it with honor!
-
just walk around topless the rest of the day

I usually just dab a drop of dish soap onto the area, then rinse it out with water. If you have a hair drier, then you don't have to walk around with a wetspot on your clothes for the next hour.
The salt or club soda tricks never worked for me.

Try eating more slowly and chewing your food. Seriously, it is easy to eat streetmeat or anything else without wearing it.

The hot sauce containers from 53rd halal splatter when you open them.

Can you take a pic and post it??? I want to see!

@stevenp- he is probably a mouth-breather too. some people are hopeless.

All great suggestions. Thanks, guys. However, I've decided to wear it with honor as per Goats suggestion. I even tried the powdered cream in the coffee room on a test spot. There was FAIL there, too.
I don't really know how to post a pic but the grease stains are starting near the tie knot and all the way down past my chest pocket in a neat line. There are some grease accents near the top of the pleats of my pants as well. No doubt garnering looks and snickers from colleagues and superiors. But hey, that's sometimes the price you have to pay for eating meat from the street. I just happen to be that type of guy who naturally attracts stains no matter what :/ But that's a willing sacrifice I like to make for the food I want. It's my burden. It's my curse.

Hey, I've got some burn holes in my shirt--literally...and I don't even think about it! LOL

@ Goats - Are they from the hot dog grilling machine from Rudy's? If so, you just might be my new bar hero.
-
NO---I think someone, maybe myself, ashed on me when I was drunk...LOL

Adam is right, MGHU, dish soap, but it won't get it out until next time you wash it. Pre-treat with dishsoap, then wash. I don't know about ties, though, because I don't own a tie and have never washed a tie.

So I figure this place would be the best source to ask this since I am sure some experienced street meat eaters would surely have the answer. So I am about to eat my street meat with all the ready precautions at my desk. Tarp-like layer of napkins? Check. Napkin bib? Check. Tucked tie in shirt? Check. BIG pile of napkins at the ready? Check. So I dive right in. I am trying to be careful and thoroughly enjoying my meal. And then, stuff happens. Smelly greasy stuff that makes street meat so f'ing good. And it's on all the places where my napkin bib is not. What's worse is that I am without the emergency office shirt or a suit jacket which I would undoubtedly use to hide my plebeian culinary shame. So with the office supplies and kitchen resources, how can I get rid of these stains?
