So what do you do if you eat the dirty dozen? Do you keep eating it but less of it or what?
If something is on the dirty dozen, I always try to buy the organic varieties of those foods. We're lucky enough to have a good natural foods market where we have access to them. If not, try to buy locally grown or USA grown- things like grapes that are imported from Chile or Mexico always have more pesticides than their US equivalents.
