No, it certainly doesn't help the bacteria.
You have to understand the relative scale between us and bacteria. Running underwater for a few seconds felt pretty tame to us. For microbes, it is the mother of all tides. Most bacteria have nothing to attach to the surface of the carrot or lettuce, so when the waves hit, they are simply swept away. So sometimes you can drink from a clean stream or river, but trying to drink dead water will almost always make you sick. The reason we need soap to clean our hands is because our skin is covered with a thin layer of oil that will create a barrier between the water and the bacteria that can thrive in the water. The soap creates an interface that allows these oils to bond with the water as it passes through, removing the barrier. Fruits and vegetables usually don't have the same obstacles to deal with, so just water should be enough.
