The Dirty Dozen: Top 12 Foods To Buy Organic

user

With so much talk about organic food these days, my first reaction is to want to buy EVERYTHING organic.  Unfortunately, I just cannot afford to do that.  Organic food tends to cost 2 to 3 times more than conventionally grown produce. 

Even though I want to keep foods that contain harmful pesticides and herbicides away from my family, my budget just cannot handle that.  So, as a compromise, I did some research and came up with a list of foods with the highest amount of pesticides found in them.

Buying organic food is better for the environment and your family.  If you can't afford to buy everything organic, try to stick with buying "The Dirty Dozen" produce organic.
