 If you use this to wash your produce, you're wasting money and ruining your food. The FDA says you shouldn't even bother with veggie wash. It actually leaves behind more residue and changes the flavor. Just rinse for about 5 to 10 seconds under cold water. Never use hot water. Not only does it affect the quality of your produce, but the heat can allow microorganisms to come in through the stem. And if you still feel like water isn't enough, make your own natural rinse. All you need is 4 tablespoons of baking soda and water.
