Is it necessary to use veggie wash? #Torah #shorts

Are you aware of what is hiding on the skin of the fruits and vegetables you bring into your home? While many people focus on checking for insects when it comes to kashrut, there is another significant layer of concern that often goes overlooked. In this video, Rabbi Lev Leib Lerner addresses the critical necessity of properly cleaning produce to remove wax, pesticides, and chemicals applied during the commercial preservation process. It is not enough to simply rinse items under water. Rabbi Lerner explains that fruits like oranges and apples are treated with various gases and waxes to maintain their appearance and shelf life. These substances are not necessarily kosher and can pose health issues if ingested. The discussion centers on the practical steps one must take to ensure their food is fit for consumption. This involves using a proper veggie wash or a kosher-certified soap to thoroughly cleanse the surface of the produce. While peeling may seem like a solution, the residue from the peel can transfer to the fruit itself, making a thorough wash essential regardless of whether you intend to eat the skin. By taking these extra steps, you are protecting your health and adhering to the standards of kashrut that elevate our daily eating habits. Watch to learn how to properly prepare your groceries before they reach your table. How should I wash vegetables for kashrut? Is it necessary to use veggie wash on produce?
