Melissa, thank you for this channel, I love it, but one correction...the white film on blueberries and grapes is not the pesticide. This is a completely natural coating produced by the fruit itself called "bloom". It helps protect the fruit from pests and moisture loss. You will see bloom on organic fruit too. And I cannot bring myself to eat eggplant. 🤢
Hi Melissa, about 4 years ago I stumbled onto your videos. I can say this with an open heart. Your videos changed my life. Everytime I clean my kitchen I do the S way of cleaning counter tops as well as the eye level testing. Everyday I think of what you said about that. I stay in South Africa and have told so many ladies about you. You changed my life How to clean MY space. Thank you so much for your tips. I watch your videos over and over. One of these days I'm going to order by my waffle towels and microfibre cloths. ❤
Eye-level testing and the S way of cleaning - sounds like you've got it down to a science! Keep up the great work and thanks for the wonderful kind words Charmaine! Melissa.
This message has nothing to do with cleaning fruits and veggies. I don't know if you will ever see this message being that there are over 200 comments already but some how some way I stumbled across your page, read your book and NOW...I ALMOST love Cleaning up. I just cleaned the bathroom in less than 30 mins sweeping and mopping included. I cleaned my kitchen in an hour and my room in an hour based on your wave method!!!! OMG!!!! Normally I would get PARALYZED walking into my kitchen or bedroom because the clutter would be debilitating. But now with the new system I clean like a pro. :-). Just wanted to give you your props!!!! Thank you!!!
I saw your message, and appreciate the show of love! Thanks for the feedback. Let me know if there is anything other content you need an I am happy to provide! Thanks! Melissa!
Melissa, I love your channel. You keep it real. Eggplant is absolutely disgusting. I also dislike cooked mushrooms. Why someone would put slimy mushrooms on a perfectly cooked steak is beyond me. Keep it coming.
I guess I'm the yang to your ying😂 I love mushrooms, cooked or not. And I keep meaning to incorporate more eggplant in my meals. Send what you don't use😉
Do you trust bagged salad mixes when they say "pre-washed?" They're convenient for getting veggies to my family but I don't know if they're as clean as they should be!
Excellent video and so useful! My least favorite veg: Brussels sprouts. When I think of cleaning fruits & veg's, I think of actual dirt too, not just pesticides, since dirt (soil) is where produce would pick up bacteria like E. coli or C. diff. I saw some research where the veggie that needs the most washing re: soil is lettuce, especially leaf lettuces or "spring mix," because lettuce is right down in the soil and there are so many folds and frills with lettuce that it's hard to fully rinse it. I've also had to rinse spinach multiple times to remove sand. ... and now I'm hungry for a nice salad, LOL! Thanks Melissa!
Hello Melissa, I've been hearing alot about apple cider vinegar and water bath to clean fruits, does that really do the job or is it just an old wives tail? What's your thoughts on ACV??
I appreciate your video. I also practice washing my produce right before I eat or prep for cooking. I’ve been soaking, changing the water at least three times for strawberries. I do massage them clean at the final soak before I rinse. Total time, about 20 mins. I’ll start adding vinegar to the strawberry soak.
What about the salad kits from a grocery store and says it's triple washed, are they really safe to eat right from the container? Where I live i don't have access to a normal kitchen area, I mean I do but it's a pain to deal with so eat it right from the kit from the store. Please tell me those are safe
I love peppers with onion on my chuck roast in the oven. Love my Serrano chiles with my eggs almost every day topped with shredded cheese and corn tortillas
Hi! It's Melissa! And I wish I owned a vinegar company, but I don't. It's just the least expensive DIY versatile helper out there. at a minimum the 1 to 4 ratio is to be used, a bit more won't hurt, just make sure you rinse well and you are on your way! Thanks for watching my videos, and if there is anything else you need help with, include it in the comments and I'll add it to our production list! Thanks!!!!
Lima beans is my least liked veggie. I wouldnt flip the table haha, but pick around them. I have no idea if i dont care for any fruit...havent come across any yet haha.
Ha ha...me too! When my Mom served mixed frozen veggies, I'd leave all the lima beans on the plate. She once made me try one, and I got so sick, she never bothered me again. Lol.
@@kimreed2489 yes my dad would serve the mixed veggies too! That's the only time I've seen them. THANKFULLY he ALSO doesn't care for them so he was fine with me picking them out hahah!
Thank you so much for easy clean for fruits and begs. My favorite is granny green apples but the waxy film is such a turn-off will follow your advise! 💕
Organic food is made without pesticides but may have a coating on it… if you get organic apples and pears sometime they put the coating to protect it from getting wrinkles, with organic kale, spinach and so on you can wash with inlet water 💦
@@beatrijsb634 that is not correct. There are many OMRI pesticides. Neem oil is one, for example. Perfectly harmless to our skin, but you do not want to eat it.
Another question: have you heard of Apeel? There's a FB group that discussed bioengineered food and harmful chemicals. They're saying that Apeel does not wash off of produce and recommend peeling the affected product. I'm new to that group and wonder how do you even know it's on your produce? If all washing attempts fail?
It's supposed to be on the produce sticker. Although sometimes that sticker falls off, so if you are missing a sticker on the one you pick up check the others. Do not eat the skin of any products that have it, I know some avocados and apples are using it.
I have tried to like Kale, but I just can’t! 😅 Also I’m wondering if the things that we would typically peel before eating need the same kind of washing ? I usually peel peaches, sometimes apples, etc
I’m surprised you didn’t mention that it is better to choose organic versions of the dirty dozen, as opposed to using so many methods to clean them. My understanding of the growing process of the dirty dozen is that so many pesticides and other chemicals are used during the whole process that washing NON organic produce wouldn’t help. I may have to check the FDA site or the EPA for clarification.
Even organics have proven to have SOME pesticides, but obviously supporting local farmers who are organic is an ideal choice but an expensive one. If you wash conventional properly, you can remove much of the pesticide danger! Thanks for watching this one! And the great comments!
Beets are awful. Interesting: my mother used to love Italian ice. There were three flavors in the box she bought. Lemon, strawberry, and cherry. I noticed a strange aftertaste from one of the red ones. I read the labels and found out *that* one had beet used as a sweetener! I could even taste that little bit. Yuck.
Great balanced video that needs to be required watching for ALL young teens. I don't have an aversion to any fruit or veg, but I only have garden grown sprouts. BTW, your animations about thriving bacteria (1.30-) is hilarious without sound.....just saying 😲😏🤣
I do not know if you had done one or not. However, we where wondering if you had any tips for downsizing seniors and I have certain problems that hinder the classic ways of cleaning. Do you have any helpful tips for us? Especially hard to do justice with baseboards, garage, is there also products that you recommend for spraying outside such as we spray the enclosed patio n the windows but the spray wait n rinse products just don't work like the used to!
In my European country white vinegar is not the color of water! How odd is that. It is more the color of white wine. I wonder if some bleaching process is used in North America for white vinegar…
My list of gross fruits and veggies is sadly pretty long, but the toppers are: olives (just the smell makes me gag), mushrooms, eggplant, cilantro, onions, and okra. I do like bell peppers but only if they're raw. I love broccoli and cauliflower but only if they're cooked.
If you tupperware then we are good for meal prep. Keep an eye out for our new video on Sunday reset routines which will highlight meal prep (and revert back to the dirty dozen!). Thanks for watching! Melissa
Not a joke or a troll, honestly why so we actually need to clean these fruits? I have been eating these my whole life (38 yrs old) and never washed my fruit. Why is it bad eating fruit without washing them? What will it do to me eating them without washing them?
Besides the presence of film on many fruits, it also the handling of produce. Have you been to the grocery store as they’re putting produce away? Look at the crates they’re removing the produce from. Or when some drops produce on the floor. Also, some people like me may have a negative reaction to the fils on foods.
As a Bangladeshi, I will not be able to survive without pepper. I use the green extra spicy ones. I don't care if they're not good for me lol..I love them 😂
For me, mushrooms can go straight to hell. :) In my adult life I continue to try them now and then, hoping my repulsion will change- but no. Hard no. Even though I don’t cook with them, I’m surprised they didn’t make the list! I’ve also heard there are different ways to clean different mushrooms, so maybe that could be a new video idea for you. :)
There are no vegetables or fruit that I don't like, I will eat it all. I have never been picky about food. I belong to a shopping Club that sells all natural cleaning products that has no harmful products if ingested by kids or anyone. I use their product to clean my produce and it cleans well and actually makes my produce taste better with no residue. These products are plant powered cleaners, the only products I use in my home.

I like peppers and eat them often. My favorite is orange bell peppers. I can't imagine washing my strawberries like that. I eat strawberries every morning. There is far too much produce I don't like. 🤮 Wish I liked more.
Another suggestion I picked up from a woman who is a doctor and an Orthodox Sephardic Jew: if you buy berries, such as raspberries and blackberries, be sure to soak them for a while. Often there are little insects living in them. I saw her video. They keep strictly Kosher so she takes a lot of precautions.
baking soda traditionally is used when some safe form of 'abrasive' is required (grapes, blueberries). but if you are using either one you are better off than none at all. Hope that helped clarify! Melissa.
I eat peppers almost every day as a vegetarian. I always use vinegar water solution and a scrubbie to wash apples, zucchini, peppers, oranges(if you're going to zest), cucumbers, etc.

This was very interesting and well presented as always! The CrossLegacy has a different approach but it also works very well.

Agreed! Why on earth would anyone want to eat a FUNGUS?
My family love my mushroom sauce on steak, pork fillet, pasta...it's so good.
I love peppers. I actually eat bell peppers as snacks, dipped into a good french onion dip. 😋
Maybe I have to give that a try!
I wash mushrooms very well in running water, those who say to dust them off well I'm not eating at there house!!
Yes!! Running water & rub-a-dub-dub until all the dirt is gone

Interesting citrus to detest! Thanks for watching!
Thank you for this video. Scary now I will make sure it is washed. Dont like peas in patato salads

Can you clarify why you would sometimes use vinegar and other times baking soda?
baking soda traditionally is used when some safe form of 'abrasive' is required (grapes, blueberries). but if you are using either one you are better off than none at all. Hope that helped clarify! Melissa.
I eat peppers almost every day as a vegetarian. I always use vinegar water solution and a scrubbie to wash apples, zucchini, peppers, oranges(if you're going to zest), cucumbers, etc.
Sounds like your veggies get a spa treatment before they end up on your plate! Keep up the good work in keeping them squeaky clean.
