Dirty Dozen

There are some produce items that are called "The Dirty Dozen."  They are foods that are the "if you are only going to buy a few things organic, buy these."  Some foods are more susceptible to pesticide residue lingering and seeping into the flesh through the skin.  Here is the list:

1. Celery

2. Peaches 

3. Strawberries

4. Apples

5. Blueberries

6. Nectarines

7. Bell Peppers

8. Spinach

9. Kale

10. Cherries

11. Potatoes

12. Grapes


So when you see these things on sale: buy them, freeze them, eat them.
