The Clean 15
Ideally, we think it would be great for you to eat a 100% organic diet, but sometimes we have to make choices due to availability or budget. Certain vegetables are more affected by herbicides and pesticides (see the Dirty Dozen), and then a few that have thicker skin, as it were, and seem to be safer choices if you are going to eat conventional produce:
So, if you're watching your pennies and buying only partially organic, or wondering what to eat at the next potluck, we hope this list will give you a little guidance!
- Asparagus
- Avocados
- Bananas
- Blueberries
- Broccoli
- Cabbage
- Garlic
- Kiwi
- Mango
- Onions
- Papaya
- Pineapple
- Shelling peas
- Sweet corn
- Watermelon
