Is there a way to clear out the data of all embedded documents.

For example I have a contact with:

  • Email Addresses
  • Phone Numbers
  • Addresses

I have new data for all these fields and I want to replace them all. This is being done via a gem so it must me dynamic. I cant just call each embedded model and run destroy_all.

What is the best way to delete all the data from embedded documents?
