This is really helpful! Darnit- it’s all the yummy (and expensive) fruit that are dirtiest.
I’ve heard that more watery produce holds more fertiliser and pesticide residue, and the list makes sense when you look at it from that perspective.
Mushrooms are also prone to soak up anything around them as their roots cover a huge area underground.
Your site was a real eye opener to me. I’m glad we grow a lot of our own organic vegetables.
