Homemade Fruit and Veggie wash

I know stores sell produce wash for your veggies, but you can make your own with what's in your kitchen cupboard and it's cheap to make. This helps remove e.coli and pesticide residue.

Just mix lemon juice and vinegar with water and you have cheap veggie wash. Then rinse with plain water. The lemon juice kills any e.coli bacteria and vinegar removes pesticides.

Don't rub an apple in your shirt to clean it. This won't clean a thing!

Rubbing an apple or pear...what have ya, will just push the pesticide deeper into the pores of the fruit or vegetable. Thus, Blue's contribution of a washing substance is right on the money.

Re: Homemade Fruit and Veggie wash

Don't forget to wash those watermelons off good before cutting. I know someone that got food poisoning from the e.coli on the outside. Plus, you don't know who touched that melon before you bought it.

BUMP

Who or What! Rats and spides and other dirt and disease carriers come into contact with your produce. Be careful.

Re: Homemade Fruit and Veggie wash

Not to mention the automatic misters they use on the produce are probably none too clean either after awhile..

Those misters can add to the propagation of mold and adds to the scum already growing on the display bins in the store.
