The 12 Most Contaminated Fruits and Vegetables
The top twelve most contaminated fruits and vegetables are peaches, apples, sweet bell peppers, celery, nectarines, strawberries, cherries, lettuce, grapes, pears, spinach, and potatoes (The Environmental Working Group—EWG). Because these fruits and vegetables have high levels of pesticides, they should always be purchased organic.
