The Environmental Working Group ranked produce items in order of pesticide levels, and found that non-organic strawberries top the list.

The group tested 50,000 non-organic samples looking for over 250 chemicals. Strawberries were found to be the most contaminated, followed by spinach, kale, collard greens, and grapes.

In terms of clean greens, avocados top the list of least-contaminated produce.

Pesticide exposure has been linked to heart disease, cancer, lower sperm count, and other maladies. (newser)
