Here are some educational pieces that I have found helpful in determining my selection of produce from my local market and/or grocery store.
The Environmental Working Group has provided a handy tool called, the “Shoppers’ Guide to Pesticides in Produce” that you may find helpful too.
You may want to put this in an adobe file and there is a cutout purse size guide that you can take with you as you shop.
I recommend for a very effective, affordable and easy to use fruit / vegetable spray that you can make at home for fractions of the cost of some of those on the market!
And finally, a little bit of education as to how to read those PLU codes ( Price Look Up code 价格查询码) on your produce at your local grocery so you know if what you are buying is organic or not……..always check this code as many times, the heading over the bin may say “organic” but somehow, inorganic produce is incorrectly placed in those bins……….consumer be AWARE!
— 4 digits: conventional produce
— 5 digits beginning with 9: organic
— 5 digits beginning with 8: GMO ( genetically modified organism 转基因生物) |
