This reports fruits / veggies with the most /least pesticides detected. HOWEVER, it does not report how much was removed with washing. Washing under running water and perhaps using produce wash or diluted vinegar, removes much of the pesticide residue, along with bacteria and other microbes. (Illness from bacteria is probably more common than illness from pesticides). npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=14540742 umaine.edu/publications/4336e/ Lesson -- WASH ALL PRODUCE!! especially when feeding to children who are more susceptible to effects of pesticides. Consider buying organic produce but you still have to WASH the produce! Just dont stop eating produce. The health benefits are worth the work to wash them.
