Washing an apple before you eat him?!
Question: Washing an apple before you eat him?
Is is necessary to wash an apple with water before you eat it?
one of my friends said
"water won't remove the germs on the apple, so it's ineffective to wash them"
But still
wont it remove the Soil some germs and Pesticide?
is there a chance getting sick from not washing an apple you bought on the Market ?
Thanks

Answers:
it's better to wash the apple before you eat it. at any rate, it can't hurt. it's even better to eat organic, but not always possible.
It's probably a good idea and it can't hurt.

To remove the pesticides from the surface, apple must be well washed.
It's always best to wash your fruit/veggies before you eat them.
Common Sense.
