I don't think washing with soap and water will purify them as much as having organic produce, but it is surely better than nothing. General rule of thumb is if you are going to eat the skin or it has thin skin, buy organic ... so things like apples, carrots, tomatoes. If you're NOT going to eat the skin don't worry about it - like a banana.
Here's a link to what is considered most/least contaminated, if you want to prioritize your organic purchases:

thx that helps. altho almost everything i buy is in the most contaminated list! of course. :-) guess i could just buy organics the months i sway.
I wrote a little essay about it!

Tnx! Now I will peel it all! I had no idea and did not see this tread. Sometimes I see this links and think where did it come from?? I guess there is so many post I don't find them all.Quote:
