    I can't wait to try this with my carrots. I buy baby carrots and they go bad so fast. Getting big ones and cutting them seems like a way better idea.

    Thank you. As a widow I find if I don’t use produce of any kind fast I lose it. My new fridge arrived last week and I have been trying out these ideas. I have been using the Norwex produce wash regularly for the last 4 years. I have peppers and Greek yogurt in mason jars to start. Thanks. Now onto carrots. Have a super day.

      I save the peels in my freezer to use to make stock. It also ensures they are clean once they are peeled.

    This video is so timely. I bought 10 lbs of carrots on Saturday. No matter how fast I use them, there's always some which shrivel up and get limp. I'll definitely be using your technique this weekend.

    Enjoy your videos tremendously I need to add although I seen you do many with the carrots with all other vegetables that you’re doing at once. I do like it when you do the one vegetable at a time or maybe two and do the fruit the same way it’s easier to see what you’re doing and I don’t get confused least for me. 🤪. 😅😅😅

    I really enjoyed the video. It was exactly what I was looking for, but I'm astonished that there are folks out there with the time and energy to do all of this for every item of produce et cetera. Honestly, I'm a little envious. She is like Martha Stewart level here. Well done.

      I only go grocery store once every 3 weeks and it takes apx 30 mins to wash everything when I get home. Cutting things like carrots I do during the week while making meals.

    I don't think I've watched your berry video yet, but watching this one reminded me--when I washed berried the other day, I put a plate in the top of the bowl to hold them underwater. It seemed to work pretty well, though you might know of some reason why not to.

      Just be careful not to smush them. The 2 mins goes quick
