Grapes sold in supermarkets are often packaged in mica containers. Not only does it provide an attractive appearance, but this mica container also makes it easier for consumers to choose quality fruit. The transparent packaging allows buyers to see the condition of the grapes directly without having to open the packaging, so they can ensure that the fruit they buy is fresh and free from damage.
After being purchased and taken home, this wine packaging mica is usually just thrown away. Basically, this mica has the main function as a food wrapper when sold. But do you know? Actually, this packaging mica has another quite important function.
An Instagram user @quinnyquen once showed another function of wine packaging mica through one of her uploaded videos. Reported by BrilioFood on Sunday (10/20), the woman named Quinny admitted that she did not immediately throw away several wine packaging mica boxes. She actually used it as a container to wash the grapes.

Yup! Instead of using other containers, he chose to rely on the mica. How to use it is also quite easy. First, open the mica packaging. Then pour enough fruit washing soap. If you don't have any, you can use a mixture of food grade baking soda and vinegar.

Next, pour water into the mica and close it again as before. If so, immediately shake the mica until the water is foamy. This process will help remove residue and make the wine cleaner overall. So, you don't need to wash the grapes one by one.

Now, to remove the soapy water produced, Quinny only needs to turn the mica packaging upside down. On the top, there are several holes that will help remove water from the packaging. These holes also function like a fruit filter container in general. If there is still soap left, fill the mica again with water. Then drain by turning it upside down as before. Do this process until there is no foam left sticking. After that, drain repeatedly by shaking it in the mica position upside down. This will make the remaining water completely run out.

Well, these washed grapes can be consumed immediately. This technique is very effective if you want to wash grapes in large quantities. So, the mica container will be more useful than just a food wrapper. How? Easy and practical enough, right?
