Clean, don't scrape, your veggies

Nearly fifty percent of the good stuff in your veggies is actually in the peel. Therefore, not only is peeling cumbersome and time-consuming, but it's removing half of the vitamins from the food.

With Skrub'a Gloves, you can ensure your food is clean and healthy. Simply "scrub" your veggies with the hygienic gloves, then let the gloves air dry in the sink while you prepare and enjoy your delicious meal.

Faster and more effective than peeling

It's true that peeling a potato or a carrot will get it clean. But it also means you're throwing away nearly 50% of the vitamins.

There's no reason to bother with peeling when you can get the same level of cleanliness in a shorter amount of time with Skrub'a Gloves.

If you're worried that eating all of those extra vitamins in the peel will render your Flintstones Vitamins useless, please don't despair. You can still eat them. No one will call the vitamin police.

Your questions that have been answered by the Vat19.com staff:

MAKE VIDEO

WE WILL

You know how there's wax on apples? Will these get the wax off while still keeping the skin?

Yep, sure will!

Are they dish washer safe?

Yes, Skrub'a Gloves are dishwasher safe.

Will these gloves keep my hands warm under cold water as well?

They do not have an insulating liner, but I think they're thick enough to prevent your hands from freezing.

Fireproof?

Skruba Gloves are not fireproof.

do they remove the harmful pestisides on some veggi/fruit skin?

Yes, Skrub'a Gloves are great for removing pesticides from produce. They're also good for removing the wax layer that's on a lot of grocery produce.

will there be a video?

Yes, there is a Skrub'a Gloves video in the queue.

Is it waterproof?

No, they are not waterproof. Your hands will get wet.

Would these make a good itch scratcher?

I guess so. We haven't tried that.

Will the skins affect the taste of the veggie?

It depends on the vegetable. Personally, I've always found that vegetables are much more flavorful with the skin intact.

WHATS THE POINT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!i really am confused about the point of the can u explain it to me?:(btw i love u

Veggies need to be cleaned before you eat them. A lot of folks try to avoid the hassle of cleaning by peeling, but that takes away half the food's nutrients. Skrub'a Gloves are a really easy way to clean vegetables but keep their skin intact, so that they retain all their good-for-you vitamins.

Can I wash fruit with these gloves?

Yep! It will work much better on things with tougher skins like oranges, apples, and pears, as opposed to strawberries, peaches, etc.

It says that these can be washed in the dishwasher, but can you also wash it though a clothes washer?

You can, but if you've been working with smelly foods it might be better not to contaminate a whole load of laundry.

I see they are dishwasher safe, are they also clothes washer safe? I assume so since that seems to be gentler but just checking. Oh yeah, and where's the video? :p

Yes, you can put them in the washing machine, but do not put them in the dryer. There is a video for the Skrub'a Gloves in the queue, but it's a little ways away.

Can you use them on fruits?

Certain fruits, perhaps!

How many gloves do I get with one purchase?

Each order is for one (1) pair of gloves.

how long can these last without losing their scrubbing power?

They should last for at least one (1) year with regular weekly use and proper care.

but doesn't with do the same thing as the The Original Spaghetti Scrubs?

Yes and no. Spaghetti Scrubs can be used for cleaning off veggies, but they're more suited for doing the dishes, cleaning the stove, etc. Skrub'a Gloves are made specifically for cleaning veggies; they're easier to use because you wear them on your hand.

But potatos are vegetables...

Botanically, yes, they are a vegetative plant organ. Nutritionally, no, they are a carbohydrate.

can it be customized or somthing for a bit more? (hopfully but probably not)

Sorry, but we cannot customize the gloves for you.

If I used this to clean my vegetables, whilst obviously getting my hands wet in the process, will I need to wash my hands again after taking off my gloves?

That's up to you. The dirt from the vegetables will not seep through the gloves onto your hands.

So, it's not made of potatoes?

No, it is made of food-safe nylon.

Can kids wear these & what are they made of ?

They're made of nylon and yes kids can use them as well.

Do you have to boil the potatoes before you clean them?

It's not always necessary, but it does make skinning the potatoes much easier.

Aren't Potatoes vegetables? Why is there a separate glove for them? Are you discriminating potatoes?!

We actually cover this in the description at the top of the page: "Available in two colors: brown (potato) and green (veggies). Please note that the wording printed on the gloves is for convenience only. All Skrub'a Gloves feature the same cleaning properties."

Can you wash dishes with these?

Not very effectively. We would recommend using Spaghetti Scrubs for your dishes.

Could I use these For "Keep your hands warm" gloves?

They wouldn't work as well as gloves which are actually designed to keep your hands warm.

can I keep them on my hands and wash my hands with a drop of dishwashing soap and rinse well?

Yes, that would work.

How long can you use them?

They should last for at least one (1) year with regular weekly use and proper care.

does scrubbing them do practically the same as peeling? because you said the skin is still intact, but then does it taste like a peeled veggie? or is it semi peeled ish? this is confusing...does some of the skin still stay on so it doens't do much?

The gloves are meant to scrub the dirt and grime from your vegetables while still keeping the nutritious skin intact.

Can the potatoes gloves be used to veggies?

Skrub'a Gloves can be used on all different types of veggies.

Besides scrubbing vegetables, would you advise using them in the shower to scrub body parts?

I suppose they could be used as bath/shower mitts.

so ur saying tht the gloves are made of potatoes and veggies wat does the glove means i dont get it

No, the gloves are not made of potatoes or vegetables. They are made of food-safe nylon. They have a unique texture that allows you to put them on and clean veggies thoroughly without removing the healthy skins on the veggies.

So all you do is just put the gloves on, and use water to clean the veggies/potatoes? You don't need any soap?

That's right! The Skrub'a Gloves do not require soap, which is a good thing because washing your fruits and veggies with soapy water might make them taste pretty gross.

So you're saying they are made out of potatoes?

No, they are not made out of potatoes; they clean potatoes, and other veggies. They are made from food-safe nylon.

waterproof?

No, they are not waterproof. Your hands will get wet.

Wy not just use your hand?

Because Skrub'a Gloves have a texture that really gets in there and scrubs off the dirt. Your hands, while, um, handy, aren't going to be as effective.

What are they made of? Could I just use a Sharpie to write "veggie" on a pair of ski gloves and get the same results?

No, not really. Skrub'a Gloves are made from food-safe nylon and have a patented texture that is rough enough to clean dirt and grime off veggies, but gentle enough to keep the skins intact.
