I am going poor being raw and would need to cut down on my food bill. :( This means I cannot buy all organic fruit and veggies. Can someone tell me which fruits and veggies have the most pesticides? I know lettuce and grapes are high on the list but what about others. I tried to a search and could not find the info. Thanks a bunch!!!!!

i suppose it depends which country you are in...

in the uk the pesticide action network has 10 foods with the highest pesticide as:

flour, potatoes, bread, apples, pears, grapes, green beans, strawberries, tomatoes and cucumber.
