Produce with Fewer Pesticides

If you are, but don’t have the cash to expect that all your meals can be made in an all-organic kitchen, you’ll be happy to know that when it comes to the amount of pesticides that remain on the food you eat, fruits and vegetables don’t stack up the same.

According to the Environmental Working Group, a public health advocacy organization, you can lower your family’s pesticide exposure by eating the least contaminated produce, shown here. For those fruits and veggies that have the most pesticide residues on them, you may want to opt for organic.
