One of my new years goals is to buy as much organic as I can and to go to the farmers market to do so.  I know eating all organic is not always practical but if you are going to purchase the following foods, try to always buy organic.  If you want to decrease your intake of pesticides,  the following 12 have been tested to contain the most pesticides.
Ranked from most to least (by the FDA)

  • Peaches
  • Apples
  • Sweet bell peppers
  • Celery
  • Nectarines
  • Strawberries
  • Cherries
  • Lettuce
  • Grapes
  • Pears
  • Spinach
  • Potatoes
Try to always buy these items organic, when you can!
