Food: The Dirty Dozen Plus and The Clean Fifteen
Each year the Environmental Working Group announces the fruits and vegetables that have the most pesticides on them (the Dirty Dozen) as well as those fruits and vegetables that are generally safe to eat (the Clean Fifteen). If you like any of the fruits and vegetables listed among the Dirty Dozen, buy organic. Organic fruits and vegetables are free from most pesticides.
