Hazardous Fruits and Vegetables: Do You Know the Dirty Dozen?

You may have heard the latest from Nancy Snyderman on the Today Show, regarding pesticide-laden fruits and veggies, and their potential link to autism in kids.  If you haven't, the full video segment is below.  As usual, I try to take every bit of information with a grain of salt, but this info was a bit disconcerting.  It's not conceivable for us to buy organic ALL the time, so I was pleased to find this little cheat sheet, pictured below, showing which produce is best to buy organic and what not to worry about.  I also downloaded the iPhone app recommended in the article, called "Locavore," which has all kinds of fun goodies, including information on what produce is currently in season and where to find the closest Farmers Market.  Anyway, some good stuff here.  Thought I'd share!
