The debate continues. As with so much of the information available about diet and the food we eat, there is little agreement about the value or lack thereof of eating organic produce and fruit. The debate centers around the two lists, produced annually by the Environmental Working Group (EWG), that show the worst and the best fruits and vegetables, in terms of the amount of pesticide residue found on them (after washing and/or peeling).

Our opinion is only that – an opinion. It falls then, to each of us to decide for ourselves which side of the argument we choose to support. We encourage you to take a little time to research this issue to learn more, so that you can make an informed decision for you and your family. Here are a couple of links to help with your research:
