      Obligatory joke about how it’s a bigger pain the ass to not wash it.

      Fr though I’ve heard it’s basically impossible to wash the bacteria off veggies if it’s there and cooking is the only safe option. Washing is for dirt and pesticides. So do both.

        My grandmother lived in an expat enclave in Taipei in the 60s and was told to dunk absolutely everything from the market in a dilute bleach solution and let it dry.

        Same treatment for the odd skin rash. Have the kid take a bath in dilute bleach (I have had this procedure, itchy as fuck but it works).

        I guess that’s an option
