@mayofeb2020 When I get fresh produce if its not organic I not only wash it good with water but put it in a white vinegar water solution for awhile then rinse it off I do this before I consume it . Strawberries need to soak in this solution for at least 15 minutes to get the pesticides off.

Mayofeb, I've purchased my last fresh veggies and fruits for awhile. Absolutely just an oldie and no expert but I did wash/soak everything first in lukewarm, Dawn detergent water; rinsed in cool water; let it dry before storing. I am cooking fresh veggies and fruits just as a precaution hoping the cooking heat will further kill bacteria.

Good tips, @lioness, especially about the soaking of the strawberries.
