Soap removes pesticides.

I do most of the time. I also then wonder if the chemicals in the soap are better or worse than the pesticides I am trying to wash off.

They sell a fruit and vegetable wash. I bought it in the grocery. It works very well. It takes away the chemical taste that fruits sometimes has, and it doesn't leave a soapy taste.

No, not unless the "koshering" process mandates it.

most of the time I do, but not always. aside from pesticides I've seen plenty of produce roll on the floor in the supermarket and get put back on the shelf...and think of how many people handle it from the workers in the field, to the workers who stock it in the store, and then the customers who pick it up/put it back down when deciding which cantaloupe to pick and then the cashier... haha so I take the extra second and wash with a little dish soap if I can.

I use vinegar. Soak everything and then wash it off.
