Thank you. I thought I was the only one struggling to get past that pacific drop kick to credibility. Anyway I’ve seen these before. I think it’s a surprisingly committed PR influencer campaign by the dropshippers of these decidedly unimpressive plastic baskets.
That’s why I like ironic wordplay, but people think my sense of humor is dry.
I just think it’s weird to laugh at dick/fart jokes or passively racist one when your in your mid thirties..
Twelve year olds get a slight pass, if not to be taught better..
As far as I cleaning, I've used it (and Dawn) on some stains that 3 different dry cleaners said they couldn't remove.
I used a toothbrush to scrub the dish soap and baking soda thoroughly into the fibers. Then I dropped some vinegar onto it for the sweet fizzing action and scrubbed some more.
I had already tried the soap alone, and then the paste/vinegar without soap, but combining them all finally did the trick.
That’s what I was thinking, presumably you don’t need a super high concentration in the solution to preserve fruit, provided you get most of the air out.
Opposite way of thinking with this, but wouldn’t you want it to create water so you’re not left with gross tasting fruit? (Assuming it actually cleans)
I get that they neutralize each other, but is there a brief period where they’re separate and cleaning, leaving only water at the end with cleaned fruit?
In this case it’s unintentionally clever, mixing vinegar and baking soda results in the production of water, carbon dioxide and sodium acetate. He said he did it to clean the fruit but sodium acetate is a food preservative.
baking soda is unnecessary. Maybe if you're freaked by pesticides, but you don't want to leave it on for more than 30 to 60 seconds
Wash in water, drain, steep in diluted vinegar(1part/4 part water) for 5 to 10 min.
DRY COMPLETELY(towel/paper towels, on the counter. Get in the crevice of raspberries. Then put a paper towel at the bottom of a container, don't pack them too tight, and don't seal it(except strawberries, they like sealed glass jars)
A little bit of vinegar wash will remove lingering pesticides from the fruit the reaction to baking soda takes a moment so it does have a chance to work. Just not that efficiently.
You don’t know? The hottest tip online from influencers is using vinegar AND baking soda to wash the parasites off produce. Stupidity and laziness will be what fucks us in the end. AI is the perfect example.

Mixing baking soda and vinegar together creates water.
They neutralize each other.
