Beware : The Truth About Grocery Store Misting. It May Not Just Be Water.

Have you ever noticed the misting in the produce section?
During a recent visit to Sprouts store in Florida, I was met with a strong chemical odor lingering around the produce as they misted it. It raised a crucial question: what exactly are they spraying on those fruits and veggies?
As it turns out, it could be a product called Produce Maxx. This substance isn't just confined to the misting sprays at select grocery stores; it's even used in pre-cut fruit! It serves various purposes, including misting, crisping treatment, and washing.
But upon closer examination, I discovered that Produce Maxx a product of Chemstar, contains ingredients like sodium hypochlorite, commonly known as bleach or liquid bleach. This raises concerns, as while they're using it to mist the produce, they also advise Chemstar customers to avoid inhaling vapors, sprays, or mists in its undiluted form-precisely what they're subjecting the shoppers to (albeit diluted) within the closed store environment, not to mention, when consuming it.
Also, the fine print absolves them of liability for any problems arising from the product.
Notably, Produce Maxx is utilized by known retailers, including Sprouts, HEB, Harris Teeter, Safeway, and more. It may not be the case at every location - be sure to check with your store! Are you comfortable with this being sprayed on produce? SHARE and Comment below!
