Beyond Water: 5 Simple Ways to Properly Clean Grapes for Health

• Market grapes often carry pesticides and chemical residues, making proper cleaning essential for health.
• Simply rinsing with water is insufficient; residues can cause allergies, stomach pain, or serious health issues.
• Effective cleaning methods include soaking in salt water, baking soda solution, or white vinegar mixture.
• After soaking, rinse grapes thoroughly under running water for 1-2 minutes, gently rubbing them.
• Dry grapes completely on a cotton cloth before refrigerating to prevent fungal growth and maintain freshness.
