If you’re aware of the growing amounts of pesticides and chemicals large farms have to spray the fruits and vegetables with, you may be growing slightly concerned.
If you’re like me, you really can’t afford to buy all organic. Awhile back I sort of adopted the notion that I would try and buy organic if I’d be eating the skin. Like apples (have you ever succeeded in getting that waxy residue off an apple?) and grapes nut not bananas and melons. Makes a fair amount of sense right?
Well, there’s an article that tells you which fruits and vegetables in the US are treated with the most amounts of chemicals and pesticides and why.
If you don’t want to read it yourself they are: apples, baby food, milk/butter, cantaloupes, cucumbers, grapes, green beans, spinach, strawberries and winter squash.
