I hear ketchup, salsa or silver cleaner are good for cleaning coins...

As a kid i loved collecing pennies for my book and i used to soak the out of them in hot sauce or ketchup. Now that i am an adult and realize that is a terrible idea, since it ruins the coin. i am curious what is a safe product to use if you want to clean your coins?
