Unless you’ve been living under a Genetically modified rock laden with pesticides, you’ve likely heard of the Environmental Working Group’s (EWG’s) Shopper’s Guide to Pesticides in Produce which is updated every year. This guide is comprised of The Dirty Dozen; the 12 fruits and vegetables are the most contaminated with pesticides. And, the Clean Fifteen™; the product with the lowest amounts of pesticide residues, according to EWG’s analysis of the most recent USDA data. We’re digging up all of the DIRT (and pesticide residues) on your favorite fruits and veggies as we dissect the 2024 guide which includes data from 47,510 samples of 46 fruits and vegetables with our special guest, Senior Toxicologist, Alexis Temkin from EWG.
