How to Eat Cleaner - How to Clean Fruits and Vegetables

A few years ago I went to a place where they teach you how to eat organically and heal your body holistically. While I learned a lot about what to eat and what not to eat it basically came down to eating lots of fruits and vegetables but the kick was they wanted you to purchase organic produce. Living in a cold climate this is not the easiest or least expensive way to do this so I looked into ways to Eat Cleaner fruits and vegetable and make sure that all the pesticides and chemical were removed from my food.
Because rinsing isn't good enough I discovered Eat Cleaner All Natural Food Wash + Wipes (watch QVC on March 6th at Noon ET for more info) -
Your food probably has been sprayed or waxed, or touched by at least 20 different hands and has traveled some 1500 miles before it reaches your plate. Eat Cleaner is the only all-natural lab-tested line of food vegetable, fruit wash and wipes, for fresh produce, poultry, that cleans bacteria, surface contaminants, pesticides, residue and wax. All things that water cannot clean. Another good thing is that enhances shelf life of your produce so that the product pays for itself.
Protect and Preserve your Plate with EAT CLEANER All Natural Food Wash + Wipes. Tasteless. Odorless. Convenient. Effective. Safe. Learn more....

Made with kosher-certified ingredients, including sea salt, sodium citrate and vegetable glycerin, they don't leave a scent or a film.

Cost: $3.49 for a 10-pack of individually wrapped wipes in a reusable, refillable pouch; $10 for 30 individually wrapped wipes in a tray; or $10 for two pop-up canisters with 40 wipes each.

The good: These wipes have become one of my must-pack items because I never know when I might want to wash my hands or wash an apple while traveling. After all, fresh fruits and vegetables are even starting to show up for sale in some airports. I've also used the wipes at a few state parks when the bathroom had running water but no soap or paper towels. They've also been handy during a bike ride if I want to stop and eat. The foil wrapper is recyclable, and the wipe is biodegradable, so I can clean up without harming the environment.
