To scrub or not to scrub?

Now is exactly the best time of the year to enjoy fresh vegetables and now your can easily clean them as most Danes do in a new, smart and fun way using a set of “scrubbing gloves".

The gloves are exactly right to hold, scrub and clean loose skin and dirt of potatoes, carrots and almost any other type of vegetable. No more ugly cleaning sponges, staining vegetable brushes or spacious kitchen appliances.

The unique rough fabric of the gloves is efficient yet gentle and preserves the important nutrients values in the skin. Scrubbing instead of peeling will retain 50 % more vitamins and minerals and if you enjoy organic foods even more reason not to peel. Pass on the good habits to your kids because the gloves come in sizes for them too, and above all it is safe, healthy and fun!
