If so, I suggest soaking feet in ice tea and drinking the Vodka
I can't believe you guessed that, SFS, stinky feet syndrome! yes soaking your feet in vodka safely kills the fungus that causes the extreme foot oder some people have!

Interesting to note, the same bacterium found in stinky feet is also found in stinky cheese I always thought wine and cheese were a perfect mix, but apparently Vodka works as well. Is your source from the old water witching wives, sitting around , eating hoop cheese, swilling rye moonshine and soaking their toes while spinning tales?

Nah, I saw it on myth busters, where I was from no one wore shoes enough for their feet to stink

Feet only stink when kept in shoes or socks where the material holds the sweat and bacteria get to munchin. Seems sweat is now found to contain an anti-bacterial compound.
The skin is known to release antimicrobial chemicals when wounded. Now Birgit Schittek and her team at the University of Tübingen in Germany have discovered that even intact skin exudes a small antibiotic protein called dermcidin in sweat. "This is the first antimicrobial compound in sweat ever to be described," Schittek says. ...
Sweat also contains the chemicals or odorants 2-methylphenol (o-cresol) and 4-methylphenol (p-cresol), as well as a small amount of urea,and is only on mammals. ...
The best foot therapy is a nice foot rub.
