A good grip and a good cleaning

I like buying my produce from the local farmer's market, but I've noticed that I have to do a bit more scrubbing to make sure that the vegetables I get from the market are as clean as the ones I pick up at the supermarket. Having a brush on hand to scrub off a bit more of the dirt that comes home with my potatoes comes in handy, and the Good Grips Flexible Vegetable Brush from Oxo can handle the job perfectly. The brush is ergonomically designed to fit in your hand comfortably, even when you have to scrub enough vegetables to feed an army. It's flexible, which allows you to clean every nook and cranny and, since it fits comfortably in the palm of your hand, there's no need for any handle or other interference in the cleaning process. The nylon bristles are sturdy enough to handle any dirt you bring home.

The Good Grips Flexible Vegetable Brush is simple to clean in between uses: just stick it in the dishwasher the next time you run it. One cycle through and it will be ready to clean up even more vegetables. The brush is priced at $3.99.
