I found this:
Here’s How-To:
(I came up with my own ratio that works for me)
Make sure your sink is very clean.
(UPDATE: I have been getting a lot of comments about sinks being so dirty. Sure they can be. I wash my dishes and clean my kitchen from my sink, so I’m careful to make sure my sink is clean. Obviously.)
Fill a sink halfway with lukewarm water .
Add 1 cup of white vinegar.
Mix.
Add your fruit. Don’t over fill your sink with fruit.
Soak for about 10 minutes.
Rinse well.
The Result: Clean. Fruit.
Does this not make your fruit soggy? I'm interested in this...but I don't understand how soaking them for 10 minutes doesn't make them yucky.
Update:
I did it today! I soaked apples and strawberries for about 10 minutes. The water was SO nasty!

It doesn't make them mushy?
I think I'm gonna try it this week.

I have a spray bottle of peroxide by the sink that I spray, rub and rinse my fruit and veggies with before I eat them.
