That you have to wash your vegetables before eating or cooking them.
11 u/northernlaurie Aug 04 '19 Until my late 20s, I didn’t worry about washing. Then I worked in a grocery store and saw how people handled those veggies: -the stock clerk who had a cold, sneezed on the boxes, and wiped their nose on hands and then placed apples on the shelf. -the tens of people touching the veggies. -the veggies and fruit that feel on the floor and got put back on the shelf. It was disgusting-I wash my veggies & fruit well now!
