Well am I just supposed to wash with water? I do that most of the time, but 'washing' sounds like it might include a soap or disinfectant
Depends on the vegetable or fruit. A lot of the stuff at a supermarket has been washed to some extent at which point only other shoppers are smearing poop on the veggies. I know cantaloupe is a common source of E. coli outbreaks because of the skin texture or something.
There are special sanitizing solutions that you can get to wash veggies. It was standard practice in Peru but not as much in the US
