for Margaret re: traveling to foreign country/cleaning veggies

[Guest guest]

Hello, Margaret.

I travel overseas alot and had the same concern as you. Here is how I

solved it. Before my trip, I fold a stack of paper towels to fit in

an empty baby wipes container. I make up a solution of boiled,

distilled water with the juice of a lemon in it(I boil the lemon peel

while boiling the water), then put in a tablespoon of vodka to act as

a preservative. I pour the solution into the wipes container and that

gives me instant fruit wipes! I wash the veggies, then wipe them off

with the wipe, then with a dry paper towel. It leaves just the

SLIGHTEST hint of lemon, but at least I know the fruits/vegs are not

laden with some foreign pesticide. I hope this helps. I carry them

with me whenever I go anywhere.
