THis is a great site! They have a list of fruits and veggies that are the" dirty dozen" that one should eat only if it is organic, and some that is safe to eat if it is not organic. There is alot of good info here!!!
The first site is the quick shopping guide to the to the veggies and fruits, the second site is the home page.

I noticed that green beans (best fresh) were not there either. They focus on the pesticides and not the nematodes and agrobacteria (I call it worms and germs). All can kill ya.

They are just showing the best and the worst canidates for pesticides. I think if you go deeper into their site and do a search for your individual veggie you will find it. Janice

well if you have a juicer it is easy to "disguise" veggies with fruit.
A nice blend would be organic veggies such as

• 4 - 6 large org carrots (soaked in filtered water overnight)

• a small org beet

• 1 med org apple

• a piece of org ginger (sized of large clove of garlic)

• lime juiced from 1/2 lime

• optional; a touch of cayenne or honey or a shot of wheatgrass

just juice everything together.... this is great for breakfast.

it is really fun to play with combining veggies and fruit juices.
