Friend,

It’s important to remember to look out for toxic pesticide residues. From apples to pears and kale to spinach, EWG's Shopper’s Guide to Pesticides in Produce™ found more than 75% of non-organic produce contains harmful pesticide residues, even after thorough washing!

Shop smarter and avoid pesticides with EWG's Dirty Dozen™ list of fruits and vegetables. We recommend you buy organic when possible to reduce your exposure to toxic pesticides. Learn more:

Although fresh produce is always best, many parents turn to dried fruit and fruit leathers for easy after-school snacks for kids. But EWG’s test results show dried fruit snacks contain worrying levels of pesticides. See the results here.

Potatoes – America’s most popular vegetable – joins this year’s Dirty Dozen™. That’s because a pesticide banned in Europe was found on 90% of samples, even after washing.
