What fruits an do you wash? What fruits are grab and go?

Question

Since I’ve been pregnant, you name it, I wash it. Bananas, frozen fruit, oranges, baby carrots. It’s actually decreased my food intake because I can’t just grab a banana or other easy take and go fruits on the way out the door anymore. 
So my question is? Are you girls still washing EVERYTHING? I’ll admit before pregnancy, I was probably a pretty bad fruits and veggie washer.

Answer

I’m obsessed with Young Living essential oils and they have a produce wash that is amazing!! I always washed my stuff before but damn fruit and veggies can be nasty!!! I wash all berries, grapes, nectarines, plums, apples, tomatoes, lettuce, most veggies, etc. things like bananas and oranges that have a thick peel that i don’t eat i don’t bother with washing, but most stuff I do! This is a before and after washing some berries with my wash 🤮  i watched some old lady manhandle grapes from like every bag at the grocery store and it reminded me that among pesticides and warehouses that so many people touch it all!!!

Answer

I wash my apples, oranges, and grapefruit bc I cut them. I peel my clementines so I don't wash them.

Answer

i only wash fruit that i eat the skin on. usually just water, if it looks really needs a wash I'll do a water/vinegar bath with a good rinse

Answer

I wouldn’t wash anything with a peel unless you’re cutting into it. Do not soak your fruit tho!!! You must rinse them down the drain. And buy organic so you don’t need to worry about pesticides. Strawberries are the dirtiest fruit btw. Just wash all your fruits and veggies!!!

Answer

I wouldn’t wash a banana, but everything else, yes. Always have, always will. Honestly...you don’t even know how many people touched it at the grocery store. 🤢

Answer

If I eat the fruit with the peel, I wash it. If I take off the peel, I don’t wash it.

Answer

I don’t wash bananas...but apples, grapes, strawberries and all of that I wash. I did before I got pregnant.

Answer
