I bought mine for £3.

Possibly not the most expensive or exciting item in my drawer of useful gadgets. But a veg brush is an essential bit of kit for any eco warrior cook who is trying to save the planet for her grandchildren.

With my veg brush I can wash all those lovely fresh root vegetables. Saving the effort of peeling the goodness away. Peelings are important for the compost heat to be fair but the amazing fibre is also packed with vitamins and flavours.
