Kroger has the best price ($3.69/lb) on these huge sweet dates called Medjool
dates in the bulk produce section.  As I was enjoying some last night I got to
thinking--no telling where these were grown, who picked them, and under what
sanitary conditions (or lack of) for the hands that picked them.  I wash other
fruits and vegetables, but am wondering if I should be washing these dates?  I
think it would ruin them to wash the whole bunch in advance; maybe I should
just wash the few as I eat them.  I've never gotten sick before from not
washing them, but I got to wondering...
