I don't know if this is effective, my wife soak the veggies in baking powder/baking soda, I forgot which. She said it kills bugs. Who am I to argue.

Yeah I just don't like the feel of dirt grit and bugs in my teeth.
Yeah I wash my vegetables for grit. I don't even care that much about bugs, but even the slightest amount of grit is terrible.
Why would you expect tap water to kill bacteria?
You’re washing bugs and dirt off.
Bodies are pretty OK with dietary bacteria. Same goes for dirt, bugs, and Will Arnett.
Is ... Is that Will Arnett?? Or am I missing the joke?? It doesn't look like him to me.
It's mark hoppus from blink-182
Oh damn, you’re right! I skimmed past thinking it was one of these lol
Yeah no idea who that is in OP
This is Mark Hoppus from Blink-182
Thank you. Guess I'm just missing the joke lol
I think OP and I just have the same issue with similar looking faces, because I also thought this was Gob from Arrested Development.

You wash because of the pesticides.
You wash it because of the ratlungworm that raw snail and slug can give you.
Oh fuuuuck. Nature is crazy 😬
Shit like this is why I don't believe there's a god
Also the bugs, fecal matter, and dirt that can be in the folds and pockets.
Ok, but what about the ~~salad~~ lettuce?
We are talking about washing lettuce, prior to it becoming a salad.
Sorry, but I wanted to make a stupid "switcharoo" kind of joke that would imply a significant lack of personal hygiene on my part.
In German salad also means lettuce, so that's why it wasn't as clear as I wanted it to be.
You tried to make a joke, right here in front of my salad?

Here’s me raw dogging my salads.
It probably doesn’t do much, but I soak it in water with vinegar for 10 minutes.
I assume the ratio is low enough on the vinegar that it doesn't impact the taste?
Can't imagine it would hurt anything if it doesn't affect the texture.
Yup, 2-3 teaspoons in a bowl of water. I rinse it with water again after soaking and that washes away any sourness left behind.
