Re: Bagged lettuce-do you wash it?

I soak all lettuce, even from the bag, in my sink for about 15 minutes in ice cold water and then put it through the salad spinner. You wouldn't believe all the sand and dirt at the bottom of the sink when you do this.

DH and I bought the 6 pack of romaine from BJ's and I was cutting some of it up-the one time I didn't wash it there were hunks of dirt and some bugs nestled in the leaves Chat Icon Chat Icon

I wash bagged lettuce, I actually thinks it tastes better with a rinse. I only just got a lettuce spinner, and its great.

Re: Bagged lettuce-do you wash it?

I buy the baby organic greens mostly (insane money for freaking lettuce) but it's always clean and I never wash it.

Re: Bagged lettuce-do you wash it?

Yes! It's the only way I'd be able to eat it. It is amazing the dirt and bugs that can hide within the leaves Chat Icon.

I do exactly the same. I've heard too many nightmare stories not to rinse and spin.

Yes. I think that it has a weird taste and smell so I wash it very well.
