EWG’s 2023 Shopper’s Guide to Pesticides in Produce™ is finally here, and the results are shocking! Yet again, strawberries top EWG’s Dirty Dozen list. 22 different pesticides were detected on a single strawberry sample! See the full list of fruits and vegetables we recommend you buy organic when possible, because they’re less likely to have traces of pesticides:

Can’t find organic in your local store? Check out EWG’s Clean Fifteen™ list of the fruits and vegetables least likely to have pesticide residues. Stick to this list when organic options aren’t accessible or affordable.

Strawberries aren’t the only problematic produce item. 90% of blueberry samples were contaminated with toxic pesticide residues, including pesticides linked to cancer and nervous system harm. Learn more now!

Among the 54 different pesticides found on blueberries were several bee-killing neonic pesticides. Not only have these pesticides been linked to the massive decline in bee populations worldwide, they’ve also been linked to neurological damage in children. Join EWG in urging the EPA to get bee-killing pesticides out of blueberries!
