What gets out curry stains?

Turmeric, specifically.... it's yellow and there's some of it on the front of every white T-shirt I own, it seems.

Perhaps I just shouldn't eat at work..

um

try bleach.

good luck. even the dry cleaners fails with turmeric if it's serious enough.

I'd say-- stop wearing white. ;)

Yellow dye.

If you need to clean whites...

...ask a cricketer. They make a career of it.

Spray some stain remover on the stain, and soak in some detergent booster/pre wash (we call it Napi-San here, it's nappy cleaner) for a day or two in warm/hot water.

Take it out, spray stain remover on the stain again, and put it in the washing machine with bleach and the washing powder.

Lather, rinse, repeat.
