Which fruit contains the most pesticides?

If you like apples – you’d better enjoy washing them too...

According to a report from the Environmental Working Group, conventionally grown apples are contaminated with more pesticides than any other fruit. If you can buy organically grown apples, it may be worth the extra money to save you some elbow grease. To really effectively clean a regular off-the-shelf-apple, you’ll need to scrub it gently with some white vinegar. Peeling it is an option too – but then you’ll be tossing most of the valuable nutrients and fiber.
