...But wash them first! Of course, you're thinking. However, those veggie washes out there tend to be a bit pricey. And for that reason, I've never bought them. What I have been doing lately is filling a bowl with part vinegar, part peroxide and part water and letting my fruits/vegetables soak in there for a bit. I used to do just peroxide and water, but from what I've read inOrganic Housekeeping by Ellen Sandbeck peroxide and vinegar kill twice as much bacteria when used together rather than individually. Ellen has a lot of good "recipes" for organic housekeeping which will save you a lot of money by not buying all of the harsh cleaners that are out there. Most of the ingredients include baking soda, peroxide and vinegar. All of which are friendlier for your family and your wallet. So, now you know how to clean well (your food and your house!) :)
