oh come on, don't be foolish.
"makes the fruit more fresh" that's a ridiculous.claim.. May as well leave it out.
i'm going to have to go on a rampage now.
What happened to Tsunami 100 ?
I bet that doesn't say Organic!!!!
Basically, the way the ultra orthodox are, is If it's kosher, it's fine. Doesn't matter what's in it.
Does that fruit wash doesn't even have ingredients on it! Or do they pretend that for them organic means so natural it doesn't need to mention ingredients.
You know kosher makes of food, as in jewish companies , they don't even put how many calories , and a breakdown of carbs protein, fat, on the food. They are WAY behind in terms of health. The food is loaded with sugar. I would trust their health claims even less than a goyish company.
You know nowadays, hardly any food contains transfat. Many are labelled transfat-0. Or tiny traces. Kosher food, often has an ingredients list. Though never anything about calories. And when you look at the ingredients list "hydrogenated vegeatable oil" it's not that unusual. That's a key source of transfats. The most dangerous type of fat.
Infact, the label tsunami 100 is classic. The poeple they market to couldn't give a damn about health either. IF it's kosher, it's fine. Nobody living outside of a ghetto is going to wash fruit in a wash called tsunami 100. Only if it's got a kosher label , as if that means that G-d has given it the OK.
Anybody outside of a ghetto would be afraid to even wash their clothes in something called Tsunami 100!!
Who can trust somebody that projects that mentality about cleaning.
Even dish washing liquid is advertised as soft and gentle!
Anyhow, did they have this exchancer or whatever they call it fruit wash 100 years ago. Of course not. But the fruit was kosher. You don't really know what they put in that fruit wash. Though it might have ingredients, I guess your image shows the wrong side.
You said it's not water but it does the same job. Well then use water.
"Makes the fruit more fresh". COME ON.
That's an advert, and a poor one at that. It's an advert marketted at ignoramuses.
Nobody in the real world is going to buy it - as in nobody is going to buy that claim. only because it's kosher and they trust it because of that
You know although it's well known that kosher places have much better quality meat than Hallal places (I know a goy who has eaten kebabs at both). And the kosher places have better quality meat than say McDonalds(I know a secular anti religious self hating jew that ate in there. He said that the meat at McDonalds is not fit for the bin of a kosher restaurant, it's thin salty garbage)
Even though the quality of meat is good compared to other places..
There was recently an article in the Jewish Chronicle or LJN(london jewish news), which listed the health inspector's findings amongst the kosher restaurants. To the suprise of the jewish community, the ratings were very poor. Almost every one was below average. Even I was suprised. We pay so much, too.
I wouldn't trust kosher food companies but I figured the restaurants would be OK. I guess many are israeli and israelis can be a bit lazy. Hot climate, bad education system, years in the army. Many are very sharp/quick minded, But many of the ones, most people working in restaurants are lazy types. And these weren't even charedi places, I can't imagine how backwards they are with that stuff.. So busy learning, and they're producing this tsunami 100 or whatever. They don't even have internet access , they do'nt promote it, and the people they market to don't. Nobody knows anything there other than Property(because it's an occupation you dont have to work long hours - so leaves time for torah study), and Torah.

That was just an example. There are Vegetable washes that you can find in any supermarket I am not going to get into a large debate over Veggie washes that can be found and any grocery store.
q_q_:
interesting.. i hadn't heard of veggie wash.
I guess if goyim came up with it in the name of health , then there's something to it and it shouldn't be dangerous! But I can imagine that the goyish one is alot more open about what's in theirs than something like tsunami 100 !
I did just read that baking soda with vinegar does the job.
Buying one of these veggie wash things may be a bit of a scam if it's extremely easy to mix your own.

In the United States, this sort of thing is mandated, it must be put on any food. You can't sell it without that.
Also you are flipping out a little about kosher "vegetable spray" but I remember very specifically a few years ago, the restaurant chain "Fridays" started using some kind of special wash on their vegetables for their salads. It was supposed to be this hip new thing that would make it all "clean and fresh." I didn't like that either. But no sense getting in a big frenzy about "ultra orthodox" cause they didn't invent this....
q_q_:
yes, I didn't know that at the time of writing.
Dovid pointed out that "Veggie Wash" existed.. I had never heard of it
I posted that -given that- , it might not be dangerous. Since the goyim came up with it for health reasons, which was to remove pesticide and things. That's the primary purpose of its "invention". How effective it is is another matter, but I wouldn't expect that to be dangerous. And if it was, there would be people worrying about it. The goyish makes of things have a wide user base and are open to criticism
If it had just been invented by charedim to get rid of insects.. then I would be worried.
For a thing made with many ingredients like that, I would still rather get a regular make of whatever it is- if it's kosher - than a "kosher make".
