Fruits With the Most Pesticides

The USDA conducted 43,000 tests for fruits and pesticides and here are the surprising results.
The top four loaded fruits sprayed with the most pesticides are: Peaches, Apples, Strawberry, and Pears. These four almost double the amount of pesticides compared to other fruits.

This may be a good reason to take extra time cleaning these fruits before eating. Better yet, try to buy these fruits organicly grown. These are pesticide free. These are great fruits and should continue to be eaten.
