Pesticide sprayed grapes ar banned in export sector
by nitmohan on Jun 22, 2013 09:28 AM

In the grape districts of western Maharashtra farmers don't use any pesticides for the export quality grapes.

But if you consume grapes with sprayed pesticides, a sensitive persons body reacts with a sore/irritations throat, mild fever next day after consuming.

To prevent this I usually wash the grapes in a aluminium stainer by holding it under hot water shower of 2.8 kw for 3 minutes. If the white stains of pesticide residues are still visible clean the grapes with a soft cleaning cloth, then again refrigerate it before consuming.

This has prevented me from having sore throat and fever after consuming grapes.

But if you get export quality grapes then a single wash is also not required.

One cannot resist/hold back - to consume farm fresh grapes if seen in front.

I had killed a lizard and then i put half of the lizard in 200 ml glass bottle coke and half in the Pepsi.

At the end of 20 minutes both the lizard parts were invisible.

Absolutely there were no visible parts of the lizards in the bottle.

I request the Coke & Pepci drinkers to test this at theie ends, they can try it with cocroach or earthworms.

This tests wont cost you much.

See it test it & then think if you want to consume?

Missing from the news

In 2003, the Centre for Science and Environment (CSE), a non-governmental organisation in New Delhi, said aerated waters produced by soft drinks manufacturers in India,
including multinational giants PepsiCo and Coca-Cola,
contained toxins including lindane, DDT, malathion and chlorpyrifos — pesticides that can contribute to cancer and a breakdown of the immune system.

Tested products included Coke, Pepsi, and several other soft drinks (7Up, Mirinda, Fanta, Thums Up, Limca, Sprite), many produced by The Coca-Cola Company.

CSE found that the Indian produced Pepsi's soft drink products had 36 times the level of pesticide residues permitted under European Union regulations; Coca-Cola's 30 times.

CSE said it had tested the same products in the US and found no such residues
