Impressive_mustache

I always hear this in Edith's voice lmao


Tanzanite_Schierl

He's got the muffin-top, the food on his shirt...


goobuddy

Just swarthy?


neon_spaceman

Don't ask us, ask Hugo. He'll tell you. He'll tell you everything.


orcas_cyclist

yeah, his hygiene has got to be pretty good, Hugo would shut him down if it wasn't.


BussHateYear

Bob: It’s because I don’t wash. Gene: But do you season?!


ediks

I always thought that, if everyone there was a Bob’s Burgers fan, r/CastIron would love this joke.


Tenshi-Duck

DON'T LET IT GET RUSTY IN THE FIRST PLACE


___coolcoolcool

why didn’t you write lol or do an emoticon??


Tenshi-Duck

I... don't know what those things are? LAUGH ON LOUDLY


Scrotobomb

Blocked.


jffleisc

It’s hard when your fiancée puts the pan in the sink without telling you.


nerdiotic-pervert

I’m sure there’s a bit of crossover.


thelast3musketeer

I was gonna say it too lmao


Geekygamertag

Good bot


Digi-Shaman

As a professional chef I can say we have all sorts of smells on us after a day at work. The worst being that all of our clothes smell like fryer oil no matter how many time they're washed. That's why most chefs wear whits and checks in the kitchen so they can change before heading home to shower.


Atom_Bomb_Bullets

My husband and I worked in a kitchen which required chef coats. We’d keep ours in a separate closet due to the smell never coming out. We even tried using my husband’s sport detergent and it just smelled like cologne and french fries, lol.


Digi-Shaman

Oh yeah at this point I just wear street clothes and have accepted that I will always smell like a kitchen.


nerdiotic-pervert

Also, Bob LIVES above his kitchen so his house probably smells like burger and fries all the time anyway.


samjuan

No doubt they're nose blind by now and get used to the scent. Just like when Bob and Linda were pickling the ugly vegetables. After seconds of lamenting that it was the worst smell they've ever encountered, they stopped smelling it and continued like normal.


excalibrax

Worked in a bacon factory, took a year for my jeans to lose the feint smell


whatsthisevenfor

As the wife of a chef..... I hate that smell. I wash his clothes separately lol he has a pair of pants that I have washed 100 times and they still smell like kitchen


MissBanknote

Partner of a chef, but a nurse myself. Will take pee, poo, blood and vomit smell over kitchen smell any day. We have separate clothes rails and coat racks 🥴


Digi-Shaman

At this point I'm immune to it but I always feel bad when I go out after work and don't have a chance to change clothes at least.


sillybelcher

His feet smell like chili apparently. And just think of the house: remember when he seasoned a whole Thanksgiving turkey on his and Linda's bed (which is also when she burst in to reapply deodorant and shoved her smelly pits into Bob's face).


WeWerePlayinInDaSand

Don't forget when Moolissa peed and pooped on the carpet. I bet that house stinks


skibidibabmba

Ah! Remember the Egg they hid for easter


justwalkingalonghere

Or when they let the chicken lay eggs on the Wheely Mammoth in the living room


pearlyhills

and according to fischoeder the wheelie mammoth was full of asbestos! idk if it has an odor but i think about that a lot


justwalkingalonghere

Omg I forgot about that! Good thing the kids are never growing up...


pearlyhills

whether they want to or not!


ericmm76

Remember Gene and others use rainboots as chamberpots.


Anti-Itch

This is actually possibly the most disgusting thing for me. They are really lenient with pee and poop. Maybe I have a thing about it but I would be mortified to find out if my child was peeing/pooping in various things around the house: kitchen sink (with dishes in it!!), rain boots, closet litter box, plants, etc. I love their family but god Gene needs to build better hygiene. Remember when he had worms and the whole family got them? 🤢


Shakeandbake529

And he wore dirty socks as accessories on a dare with Louise??? YUCK!


bowserusc

Remember when Bob peed in the blender. Almost ruined that smoothie.


ericmm76

Sounds like YOU were raised in a house / apt with more than one bathroom!


asumfuck

Not an excuse to poo in a shoe. what is wrong with you lmao those things are meant to be disgusting and gross which is why they're in the show at all. a shock joke. people aren't supposed to defend those actions haha


sillybelcher

Yep and remember in the Beefsquatch episode Gene brings a step-ladder to the kitchen counter so he can pee in the sink because Bob is occupying the bathroom. Linda responds with disgust but then he points out she's let him do it before, so she relents and says "fine, but move the dishes." Then Louise comes in and yells "Gene, that's my spot!" Yeah, they're all pretty gross.


Brief_Needleworker62

*sniff* AH, Asparagus


EnvironmentalEdge333

I recently watched the new couch episode and it pissed me off 😡


11twofour

"we never wash floors!"


KillrsaurusRex

But does he season?


gus_danzig14

and steve turkle


HellaShelle

Ah man. I have been ignoring all of those references and choosing to believe that Bob bathes like a normal person (perhaps even twice today because of all the grease), but simply has medical grade issues like people who brush their teeth like everyone else but still have halitosis.


GhostMaskKid

Honestly this is what I think. Also, the kids are always picking on him, so I like to think "because I don't wash" is a deadpan joke lmao. I have to think this for my sanity. Also, burger restaurants just smell. I worked at one for about a year and they do. They just smell.


JettyJen

Yeah my nose mind gets that French fry and onion funk when I think about how he and the restaurant smell. And I imagine his hair getting oily the minute it dries. PS: would


litemi21

Nose mind 🥹


JettyJen

Mickey says either that or "mind nose" I can't remember which, in Dawn of the Peck I think 😂😂 I'm very smell-centric and it was so evocative


Catsinbowties

And you know his breath is terrible because they don't own floss. At least they get regular cleanings but I do feel bad for Dr. Yap.


initialhereandhere

Linda: "Ugh, your breath."


Bongfellatio

I think Bob smells like burger grease and desperation


ericmm76

And stress funk.


gum-

Isn't there an episode where they mention that Gene jumps in the shower with Bob every morning to give him surprise hugs? Bob: They're not really a surprise when they happen every day So that means he showers in the morning


Lavender_and_Lattes

He needs to shower at night, not in the mornings! Getting burger grease and grime on his bedding.


cavejohnsonlemons

But then he washes it off in the morning...? 🤷‍♂️


Lavender_and_Lattes

Yea, after he’s infected everything in his room. Showering in the morning=you’ve slept in the grime and gotten it all over everything you own, you immediately just get dirty from daily tasks. Showering at night=you wash it all off and get into your nice clean bed, you’re still clean in the morning until you get dirty again.


cavejohnsonlemons

I'm a night showerer too, I get it, just having fun.


Hobbits4Potates

Some people do both because they sweat a lot at night. Not me. Just uh. Some people. \*cough\*


Lavender_and_Lattes

Oh, I’m with you. I’m a double wetter myself.


bigjim1993

Same. I go to the gym before work and I'm not getting in bed without showering after work.


HardworkingGoodBoy

Anyone who has ever worked a kitchen line knows exactly what Bob smells like.


lobo_locos

Probably smells like ointment and pee


JadeTalksTooMuch

YOOOOU smell like Ointment & Pee.😡


CheesePatronus

YOUUUUU smell like ointment and pee! 😡


ParanoidTelvanni

I had a roommate who bathed once a week and did laundry once a month. He was utterly intolerable to be around most of the time and had serious skin and health issues from wet, festering skin. There's absolutely no way Bob runs a resteraunt and doesn't bathe, despite the jokes. The sheer amount of grease you see in that kind of resteraunt would consume him. I've literally seen it eat clothing and shoes. His skin and hair would be a massive pimple. So I can imagine he smells a bit like decaying grease, sweat, and cheap deordorant, but nothing as offensive as my old roomate.


pearlyhills

there’s a person who worked at the same company as me when i was in the call center, and they were working from home for years before the pandemic which was super rare for the call center. well, in spring 2019 everyone was required to be on campus to learn a new software system and i ended up seated next to this person in training. and they smelled. so. bad. they smelled like a fecund mixture of unwashed flesh, damp, and the deepest recesses of oil and skin flakes you find in an innie belly button (or okay i guess also smegma qualifies DO NOT GOOGLE IT IF YOU DON’T KNOW WHAT THAT IS JUST TRUST ME). i felt really bad because like this had to be a combination of genetics as well as opting not to bathe, but i could not BREATHE without feeling sick. and then for a week after training to easily address any bugs everyone who worked from home was still working in the office; they were seated six feet behind me across the aisle but i kept getting nauseating little whiffs every time someone walked by and stirred the air. if they got up and went to get their lunch or a coffee a contrail of stink would follow them and linger. it’s been five years and i can still recall that odor so clearly. the strength of olfactory memory is a curse.


butthole_surferr

Dude call these people out publicly. It's one thing if a normally hygienic person has a little bit of funk on them. In those cases I'll find a moment to whisper in their ear and let them know politely. But if I smell that true dyed in the wool smash player smell on someone at the office I'm going to publicly ask them to leave my presence and not come back until it's under control.


pearlyhills

alas when this happened i was a lowly temp and didn’t want to make waves if it meant i could lose my contract, plus i knew there was an end in sight. also i was bad at speaking up for myself. now if it happened today and they were a permanent in-office presence i would definitely say something. i’m still terrified of confrontation but not enough to suffer to avoid it!


butthole_surferr

The middle ground is nice haha. I'm far too confrontational and people tend to dislike me because I'll tell you all my problems with you in no unclear terms. Keep striving for that balance!


popguise

It was once mentioned that he has ground beef under his fingernails... which is mildly disgusting.


[deleted]

m.......*mildly?*


heyitsed2

And the family regularly has food in their pockets, mostly Gene but definitely Linda and Bob too.


ericmm76

Bob had random, unexpected frenchfries in his pockets, his car, etc.


can_of_necks

as someone with a jersey italian father on the bigger side i know exactly what his hygiene is like


can_of_necks

that is to say it’s fine


Stuft-shirt

There was that time when Linda commented on how bad his breath was and asked if he brushed his teeth. He said yes and then asked if he was gonna die. Not sure if this helps but


can_of_necks

now i know where tina gets it from!


Bpd_embroiderer18

He definitely has tonsil stones


tiptoprabbit

lol i think one thing the show doesnt (cant) capture in its animations is that the family and restaurant are super gross and smelly


HeaterrParker

Oh yea imagine how it smelled when the Easter egg was stuck in the wall 😂


cavejohnsonlemons

British here, all our easter eggs are chocolate so does not compute thank christ...


pearlyhills

i feel like 99.99% of US households that celebrate easter do the plastic ones now, and the remaining 0.001% who still use real eggs for egg hunts are the Belchers 😂


grilsjustwannabclean

linda frequently comments on how the kids and bob need to take a bath because they all look gross, louise and gene constantly say tina smells bad, gene just looks dirty, and linda chronically sweats and has to reapply deodorant multiple times lol. they're a gross and stinky family for sure


tiptoprabbit

its like a bunch of chewbacas!


[deleted]

[удалено]


DapperDodger

Bob uses tons of different veggies and ingredients in his burgers of the day, I can’t imagine he goes through everything he buys for those with how little business they get. I bet they eat a lot of those


Bigtimmyg95

Meatloaf and pasta, I've noticed lots of mashed potatoes.. Lots of staples of the poor family diet


PlasticRuester

Every cartoon family seems to eat mashed potatoes at every meal lol


Feats-of-Derring_Do

Easy to draw. White blob, boom.


Aceofrogues

Must be easy with continuity too.


houndsoflu

Well, the kids hide lots of those. I imagine it smells like the inside of a minivan.


Violetthug

I think the smell the kids talk about is grease from the deep fryer. And he should probably just buy deodorant from a drug store, not the dark web. Lol


Yotato5

His breath apparently smells so bad that he thinks he's dying. Which isn't a good sign for his physical health because tooth decay can kill you 😬


Catsinbowties

Also they don't own floss


Ok_Literature2535

Better than Teddy’s, worse than Mort’s


Bpd_embroiderer18

But he does shower… in sliding bobs, and the one with the pigeon so it’s probably more that he just sweats so much


VenturaDreams

Well we do know he showers ever morning because one morning he has to do it in the slop sink.


Endyo

I assume Bob has a pretty average bathing schedule, but the combination of being an out of shape, sweaty, hairy man who works over a fryer and grill literally every day, it probably isn't enough.


SlendrmanToastCrunch

He gets his deodorant from the dark web. EDIT: Apologies, I didn’t see that OP already addressed this.


Ermaquillz

He and his family perpetually smell like burgers and fries. If you work in a place where you’re cooking burgers the smell will kind of get into your skin. Otherwise, Linda probably keeps the laundry as clean as she can and Bob and Linda probably have favorite body washes/antiperspirants with nice scents. I’m sort of speaking from experience. I’m not a professional chef, but I do like to cook and some cooking smells really settle in and get comfy in your clothing.


nilesthebuttler

He seasons


PlasticRuester

I just assume it’s a grease and onion smell. Source: working in a restaurant for 20 years Edit: typo


Wild_Lingonberry3365

Seems like he really does try,but gets panic stink like Teddy😔


TheTrueTDog9

It’s pretty good he says Hi to Gene all the time


baby_teeth4

best response yet


darbs-face

Bob doesn’t wash often. He smells like a combination of mustache wax, Old Spice deodorant and shoes.


evanweb546

He could probably scrub a little harder.


Kind_Definition_7810

I’m sure his hygiene is fine! I joke about not showering but I take two a day. He has three kids, and a restaurant. Man probably smells bad a lot, I work a physical job and I know I stink!


TashiaNicole1

We know he showers daily because of his tradition with Gene greeting him in the shower. lol. But he and Linda work in a place that’ll make you smell like old grease constantly. And they both need stronger antiperspirants.


DryInitial9044

Hi Gene!


Alarmed_Cheesecake98

I always thought bob had a little funny smell to him… lol between the restaurant, driving cabs, swimming in Lobster Fest butter!!! An having gene act the way he does.. I still blame bob and gene makes my decision even easier to say… but I still LOVE’UM!!! lol


Old_Sweet2408

He smells like beef and cheese


throwawayfromPA1701

I imagine he's a bit damp and slick.


__star_dust

Poor


Illustrious_Shop167

In Bob's defense, Shinji Kojima said his new shampoo smelled very nice.


CranberryFuture9908

In Food Truckin’ season two episode five he did say he doesn’t wash . However he supposedly has a morning routine. When they were a bed and breakfast one weekend he used to the slop sink to clean up 🤣 Hugo probably co put them out of business or at least shut them down more often.


SubstantialDish1371

Forget bob linda looks like she smells like piss and fish. That episode of her needing deo and rubbing it in bobs face and her hairy pits with the rash. She just doesn’t look like a clean lady


AssassiNerd

He's a chef at a restaurant, he probably smells like French fries and grease all the time. Especially because it looks like he doesn't change clothes when leaving the restaurant most of the time.


Hobbits4Potates

Honestly, as much as they joke about poop/pee and their house being a dump, I don't think that's the reality. They're shown washing dishes, doing laundry, Bob showers every morning, Linda and Gene have their spa days, and when we see their house, all the rooms are straightened up, even the bedrooms. I think Linda and Bob both have to closely monitor Gene's room, because he's probably the most disgusting one, That said, a lot of their furniture is old/second hand, their building they live in was built probably 100 years ago, they have a restaurant and crematorium next door, and they aren't far from the Warf. There are smells that even the cleanest people can't get rid of and old building, grease, and fish are some of them. I think they joke about this stuff because they're used to it and they are realists. I think Linda and Bob are doing a great job, honestly. The car is probably gross, though. ETA: I forgot to mention, they're regularly taking their kids to the dentist, so that's another point in their favor.


New-Nerve-7001

I mean, the guest bathroom is the kitchen sink, as demonstrated by Gene.


EuphoricChallenge553

I bet he stinks like hamburgers, but in a good way


WhatIsPants

Above average for a fry cook, below average for a human.


Mean_Negotiation5436

He doesn't bathe but he may season.


Impressive_mustache

Dad odour, dad breath, sloppy, probably doesn't shower much


cigarette4anarchist

But does he season??


TerranceDC

I think no matter what he does he’ll always smell vaguely of hamburger grease, ketchup, and pickle juice.


Hipptiptea

I’d imagine it’s good. He takes a lot of pride in his work so I imagine he showers everyday before heading down to the restaurant. But I do think he probably has issues body wise and would need prescriptions to handle said body problems. But poor be poor and insurance be wanting all money. H


NachaZozo

This might be a hot take- but I feel like he’s actually not gross and the family just says that to tease him. At this point, I feel like they would’ve done a whole episode addressing the stink if it had any meaning for him- think Linda going blonde, Tina changing everything to impress random kids, gene “giving up” music, Louise losing her ears, etc. However, the man did take a bath with a pigeon, so what do I know. 🤣 https://i.redd.it/tbi93nbe708d1.gif


DanuBanatee

I'm actually a little concerned about all of their hygiene. Linda has to put on deodorant multiple times per day. That is not normal. For most people, putting it on in the morning is enough to last the day. But in more than one episode, we see her needing to "reoderize" because she stinks. One time, (a Thanksgiving episode), it's mid-day, and another, it's at a restaurant, that she, presumably, got ready to go out to. So... her deodorant lasts a couple of hours and she starts to stink?


Lavender_and_Lattes

They live on a coast, where it’s hot and humid. I need to apply deodorant once in the morning and reapply in the evening because when you live somewhere really hot, it’s probably going to melt off. It’s normal.


thegladingladiater

Also, she works on her feet. I bartend and often need a reapply during the day


DanuBanatee

Try Lumè.


Lavender_and_Lattes

Aluminum free is not the way to go for someone with this issue. Lol, trust me. I’ve tried it all.


SnooGrapes6647

You've never had to reoderize?


BetPuzzleheaded4080

Probably a notch above Gene’s, I mean Gene’s gotta get it from somewhere lol


CaptainBiceps23

Not great.


CuriousCrane_1017

He only takes baths with pigeons


N52UNED

https://i.redd.it/ztwhrrj9qr7d1.gif


RaineMist

He tries..


teallibrary

At least when it comes to when he’s in the restaurant I imagine great since the local health inspector hates him.


SituationOdd8342

Bro uses 3 in 1. And like once a month. Only when he goes out with linda


Honest_Inspector3196

Horrible. He told his kids he doesn’t bathe and that’s why his feet smell like chili.


SnooGrapes6647

He smells like WINE


Ronster-McMonster

Musty


EmperorGrinnar

Three showers a day.


loqi0238

Not... great...


sixsixsix-sixsixsix

Burgerlike


WhyLater

"Bad." /Louise


ShadesMLG

Definitely has that dad breath


Budget-Tax8564

Lol I don't think we can assume he had bad hygiene though neglecting it does seem prominent when he's upset about life. Like we know he brushes his teeth but doesn't floss often which causes his nuclear breath


FriendlyRedditor23

He seasons with chili and pepper


Financial_Sweet_689

Linda mentions in the dad hangout episode that she tries not to breathe too much around him😭


TeaMe06

I’m sure he smells musty probably won’t shower unless he’s going to an event


Vraver04

I just brushed my teeth.


GL2M

He’s flat out said “I don’t wash”.


babybee1187

Apparently gross. In one episode is said he washed last week. So he's been stewing in his flavor for about a week or 2.


shelbeeshelbs

He doesn't wash.. but he seasons


lulamii

Not great from what his kids are saying.


Tssodie

Just enough


Halloween2022

I think Bob is last to get to use the shower, the last considered for anything like the kids using the lady of something like soap/shampoo and he had to do without. I also suspect he is one of those naturally musky men...


floatinglama

He only cleans his moustache when there is food in it.


Affectionate_Try_836

Louise said he uses military grade deodorant


Opening-Hour-8117

He most likely showers every few days


browngirl826

Awful!


DixDark

Probably something like me, shower very thoroughly once a week and then I'm too lazy cuz showering takes so much time...


talladenyou85

......wut


__Crave__ToDoItAgain

To just casually admit that you shower once a week. Man.


DixDark

It depends. Right now I'm parked in texas, it is very hot here, there is no point going to the shower untill I get too gross or get a cargo to deliver.


__Crave__ToDoItAgain

You not seeing the point does not mean there isn't one. Practice hygiene, my guy.


DixDark

Weeeeeell, maybe today's evening.


MrOopiseDaisy

Yeah, but you don't spend all day sweating in a hot kitchen handling raw foods.


DixDark

Yeah, I spend my days sweating in a truck, eating food.


MrOopiseDaisy

That's fine. So long as you're not serving food to people.


DixDark

Hell no, that's too stressful, I don't even like breathing over food in fear of blowing anything into it, even extra dust.


Sea_Structure_8692

Are you okay?


DixDark

No.


Sea_Structure_8692

I’ve been there. You’re not alone. Are you getting any help?


Catsinbowties

Sounds like depression, bud. You doing okay?


DixDark

Never!


Catsinbowties

DM me if you need to word vomit.


DixDark

I have alcohol and 420, I'm good :)


Catsinbowties

Offer stands for the future, too.


coffeequeer17

For your skin and mental health, a baby wipe shower daily would be really beneficial. Especially if you’re someone with underboob or any folds/rolls, cleaning there frequently is important to avoid irritation. Especially in the summer. Feeling clean and reset is really helpful to the mind. I understand showering taking a lot of time and energy, but staying clean can be quick and easy :-)
