A few weeks ago, after the Sur La Table debacle, I bit the bullet and ordered the Lotus Sanitizing System from Chefs.  I wanted to get it before my organic delivery as Erin had suggested that the fruits and veggies might need a serious wash. 

I tend to have a bit of a MONK complex when it comes to cleaning food due to one too many ER trips years ago.  I would have constant side attacks and the doctors were clueless.  It was later figured out that tomatoes were the culprit and, of course, I just felt that with some produce, it’s better to be safe than sorry.

Lotus cleans your produce and removes any residual pesticides and dirt that the grocery store might have left behind.  Thanks to an amazing rep of Chefs - Elaine – I receieved this in the nick of time.  She made sure that there were no hiccups and that my system was sent right away. 

Of course the newer version takes up less counter room and is pretty simple to operate.  It took a few tries but I got it to work and, can I say, I haven’t had any problems.  I use it for cleaning all the produce as well as the sanitizing cleaner.  It works so well that I am thinking about getting a few other attachments for it. 

I can’t recommend this system (and Chefs) highly enough.  I was skeptical at first when I started contemplating getting the Lotus.  I read the reviews online and stalked boards incessantly and I’m glad I did.  Now that I have it, I don’t see me going back to the old way anytime soon.  Not to mention, the peace of mind knowing that I’m not spraying chemicals all over the place as I clean up after the pug.  Lotus did good!

And, yes, the food tastes amazing!
