EWG analyzed pesticide residue testing data from the US Department of
Agriculture and Food and Drug Administration to come up with rankings
for these popular fresh produce items.
Note: Nectarines, blueberries, plums and cantaloupe are on the list as domestic and imported sources, so they are counted once in the 45 fruits and vegetables but the list has 49 entries.
Lower numbers = more pesticides.
