What's on My Food?

There is a great new database called What's on My Food?
(What’s On My Food? :: Pesticides On Food)

The service links pesticide food residue data with the toxicology for each chemical, making this information easily searchable for the first time.

It also compares the results for ORGANIC foods. I actually found one where the IMPORTED organic had higher pesticide levels than the domestic conventional!

Excellent link. I looked for a quick sec earlier, but have saved it to faves. I long for the day we have land so I can grow almost all of what we eat :(

Hi Every One,
How are you I am Henry from california want to share you my
views . That is a pretty nice effort awaring a common man about it.Pesticides are associated with us every time anywhere.Washing hands with anti Biotic soaps i think may reduces the risks of pesticides somehow.

Thanks for sharing..
