I'd be interested to hear your thoughts on the study; if their data came mainly from this ongoing FDA study: http://www.cfsan.fda.gov/~dms/pesrpts.html , then the variability in sample sizes for different fruits/vegetables makes me skeptical (it looks like about 40x the samples for strawberries compared to pineapples).

Thanks for mentioning the Pesticide Guide. I can completely identify with the desire to buy all-organic as a way to make yourself heard -- more power to you. In case you're interested, the numbers we crunched to put the guide together are available on the Food News website at http://foodnews.org/fulldataset.php -Amanda Environmental Working Group <blockquote> thanks for the response Amanda- I'll get over to look at this soon. --McAuliflower</blockquote> Hey McAuliflower!
