The Dirty Dozen

I have seen this list in numerous places and always seem to forget where I saw it. I found it again recently on Tangled and True. These are the top 12 food items that you should consider buying organic {they absorb the highest level of pesticides and toxins}. Just in case the pictures aren't obvious...
1. Meat
2. Milk
3. Coffee
4. Peaches
5. Apples
6. Bell Peppers {yuck!}
7. Celery
8. Strawberries
9. Lettuce
10. Grapes
11. Potato
12. Tomato

For more information on each item, check this out.

Ah, c'mon. Bell peppers are great! smile ... Haven't you ever had stuffed green peppers? Oh well. Let's see, we are (or will be) doing organic: meat, apples, BELL PEPPERS, strawberries, lettuce, potatoes, and tomatoes. Don't do coffee so that only leaves a couple things on the list. We'll have to work on those. Have a great day/evening.
