One of the ways we avoided disease when we lived in areas where cholera,
etc were prevalent was through washing all fruit and vegetables
thoroughly in known clean water and then a fifteen minute soak in a pan
of water with about a quarter cup of liquid bleach in it. After a few
minutes out of the bleach solution the food no longer smells of bleach.
