    Hi germanazn,
    Yeah, I’m with Kate – ewww. I don’t think it’s got a scientific name as such, but if you want to know what it is it’s basically a collection of skin cells, sock fluff, sweat, skin oils and sweat that tends to accumulate between your toes, especially if you wear socks. Nice 🙂

    Thanks, germanazn, for teaching me the word ‘toe jam’… never knew what it was called before. Not that knowing the name makes the idea any better!
