The Important Organic

While it is way too pricey for me to eat all organic there are certain items, especially produce, that are very important to buy organic because of the ridiculous levels of pesticides used.
Here are 12 produce items that should be in top priority when buying organic (high-pesticide items):

1. Apples
2. Celery
3. Cherries
4. Grapes
5. Lettuce
6. Nectarines
7. Pears
8. Potatoes
9. Spinach
10. Strawberries
11. Sweet Bell Peppers
12. Peaches

I know what you're thinking, because I was thinking it too when I first read this list, "I just bought every single item on that list...." Don't fret, pesticides are only strong chemicals used to kill insects and small animals....umm
To help you feel better about yourself here are 12 items that do not necessarily have to be bought organic (low-pesticide items):

1. Asparagus
2. Avocados
3. Bananas
4. Broccoli
5. Cabbage
6. Eggplant
7. Kiwis
8. Mangoes
9. Onions
10. Pineapples
11. Sweet Corn
12. Sweet Peas

And after I read this list I found myself thinking I need to eat more asparagus just because I don't have to buy it organic....
