List of produce, pesticide residues

[chapala]

Here's the latest list from the EWG, the "dirty dozen" with the highest pesticide residues and the "clean 15", lowest pesticide residues. Good information for people and birds! You can choose to buy organic for those foods with the highest pesticide residues when conventionally grown, or stick to conventionally grown rather than paying more for organic on the "clean 15".

Thanks for the list, just an FYI for the newer bird owner, onions and avocados were listed as big "no-no's" for any bird in February or March's "Bird Talk" magazine.

Interesting to see that they are the two cleanest.

Thanks for the list. Enjoyed reading it. I buy organic fruits and veggie's for Baby. It doesn't cost that much. I feel good about what she's eating when she eats fruits and veggie's.
