She said she'd read enough to be quite convinced it was necessary. Since then, I wash away.

Just the though of all that bacteria is creeping me out. <br /><br />Good point about other produce. For some reason I always wash those, no consistency (can't explain it).<br /><br />AliciaVegan Epicureanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08203676819322299569noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3790414766945352054.post-40400170388095271752010-02-04T15:13:19.689-05:002010-02-04T15:13:19.689-05:00yup i wash mine alicia. i also wash the outside of...yup i wash mine alicia. i also wash the outside of squashes and the like before cutting into them! good article to share, thank you dear:)Comfrey Cottageshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01135637912946395843noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3790414766945352054.post-33375683899759904862010-02-04T14:16:30.742-05:002010-02-04T14:16:30.742-05:00Andrea,

However, I will be washing them now. I had no idea how often they contained bacteria.<br /><br />AliciaVegan Epicureanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08203676819322299569noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3790414766945352054.post-20789385316469130002010-02-04T14:06:27.323-05:002010-02-04T14:06:27.323-05:00Disturbing.
