Here's something I never have around when I need it - a list of which foods are higher in pesticides and other undesirables, i.e. which to buy organic. The top 10 worst (from Environmental Working Group here in DC) - a higher score means more pesticides:
1. Peaches (100)
2. Apples (96)
3. Sweet Bell Peppers (86)
4. Celery (85)
5. Nectarines (84)
6. Strawberries (83)
7. Cherries (75)
8. Lettuce (69)
9. Grapes - imported (68)
10. Pears (65)
The full listing is on EWG's FoodNews.
