which produce is safe to eat?
hey everyone. i thought these lists would be useful for you. didnt realize that the big guys like cnn were covering stuff like this. if its accurate... i appreciate having a list of non-organic produce that is less toxic from pesticides so that when i find myself in a more standard grocery store.. i have a few more options to choose from, you know?
did you know that your cells have to swell with water in order to dilute the toxins so they will have less adverse effects on your body? im my experience, that doesnt feel too great...
also... i always wonder about "natural" products... especially those from companies that i think "they cant possibly be spraying their crops!" (not companies like SMUCKERS.. but others like the small local markets and some south american chocolate or chia seed companies!) and i think... how can i be sure if they spray their crops or not? what if they cant afford to get "certified?" ... and IS ORGANIC CERTIFICATION LEGITIMATE ANYWAY?
i wonder...
sometimes i buy dried foods like hibiscus flower and seaweed or fresh stuff like avocados or durian... even though it doesnt say "organic" because i have this intuitive feeling that it's ok.
what are your thoughts?
(will go back an edit formatting later.. sorry in a rush and wanted to speak!)

Thank you for this article. However, I would not be so quick to deem this article as helpful. It lacks some crucial information that we need in order to make our own informed decision. For example, it completely fails to say anything about genetically modified food (GMOs).
Leaving out crucial facts along with other such practices that impair the ability of the consumer to make appropriate decisions is typical of big media outlets like CNN and unacceptable, if you ask me.
Here is an article of a similar nature from a much more reliable source.
I do appreciate the contribution and eating any fresh fruit or vegetable, whether it be modified in a lab or not, is certainly better than not doing it at all.
Peace and Healing
