The Dirty Dozen

So, when is it REALLY important to eat organic?

Every year, the Environmental Working Group releases their list of the best and worst veggies and fruits (in terms of pesticide contamination) on the market.  The video below is also quick and easy to watch.  I will update this list as the new lists come out.

Here’s their most recent Dirty Dozen™ and their “safe” counterparts.  If you have limited funds, I strongly encourage you to buy the left side of the list below ORGANIC.  The rest, try to find a balance!
