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. ❤

I don't know what else to do, because birds are up in there doing their business. I know there's nets to keep them out, but 1) the trees are big, and 2) I live in the desert, so it's hot. Not nice to keep the birds out🤷‍♀️ Any advice on how to do it differently? I know it's weird, but I want the zest too and don't want poo in my zest! That was the best idea I had in getting it cleaned. All the video tips were pretty good; thanks! Oh, and those cotton candy grapes are amazing, although they don't displace regular grapes😉

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.

@kimlindseyOH 2 месяца назад

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!

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.

What about organic produce? I belong to a CSA (Community Supported Agriculture) and I find the produce to be less full of pesticides. In fact sometimes I find a bug or two but it’s local and if bugs like it then it’s not full of pesticides- people should support local as much as possible. Also i can’t bring myself to eating eggplant but I also don’t have a lot of experience cooking it .

It's great that you support local agriculture and prioritize organic produce!

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. :)

Mushrooms are definitely not everyone's cup of tea... or soup! Maybe one day they'll surprise you and you'll become a mushroom enthusiast!

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 do not like eggplant nor edamame. Oh, and cilantro, though its an herb, but its green.

Thanks for sharing your dislikes! It's always interesting to hear what people enjoy and don't enjoy when it comes to food.

Carrots lol if they are cooked with a roast or something, then that's fine. Celery is the same way

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!

Wash them ! Regardless of what that bag has printed on it. The FDA even says to wash them
