I was wondering if I should get gloves to a) prevent my hands from stinking after handling fish, b) avoid hurting myself when descaling or cutting fish.

I see influencer chefs wear black nitrile gloves, and I was wondering if they're any good for this use case . Like, aesthetic aside, is this any useful or does this tear easily like latex gloves?

Googling seems to yield mixed results.

Thank you all in advanced

Drives me crazy seeing the restaurant world embrace gloves.

I'd argue sanitation has dropped since they started using gloves, because people think they don't have to wash their hands/change gloves.
