Like most people, I prefer that my fruits and vegetables do not come with a pesticide coating. I attempt to buy organic produce as much as possible, but often the price differences make it prohibitive.
The Environmental Working Group has come out with a list of a dozen foods that justify paying the increased price for buying organic. They believe that by choosing the organic versions of these twelve, you can lower your pesticide exposure by almost 90 percent.
Here they are:
- Apples
- Celery
- Cherries
- Imported grapes
- Lettuce
- Nectarines
- Peaches
- Pears
- Potatoes
- Spinach
- Strawberries
- Sweet bell peppers
