washing fruits...

Not sure this question belongs here but:

I usually soak fruits like grapes, blueberries, strawberries etc in water with some vinegar for about 10-15 minutes.

What does everyone else do?

Re: washing fruits...

I only rinse too, which I'm sure doesn't do much (I try to buy all organic though when I can).

I saw this on HGTV's "I Want That" and I think I might get it!

"The lotus Sanitizing system infuses water with ozone, in the all-purpose sanitizing bowl included with the system, to neutralize up to 99.9% of bacteria and pesticides on foods.

You can also use lotus to infuse water in the included spray bottle attachment and sanitize surfaces with one of the lotus microfiber cleaning cloths also included with the system. Among many other things, lotus activated water also removes stains, removes mold and mildew and deodorizes.

The lotus Sanitizing System comes with the base unit, all-purpose sanitizing bowl, spray bottle, Booster Cartridge and 2 pack microfiber cloth."

I thought the vinegar would make it taste funny but it actually doesn't. I guess because it is diluted with water?

But I just see people picking through the fruits in the store and it kind of turns my stomache. Never felt that the water rinse I was giving was enough. Who knows Chat Icon Chat Icon
