Hi Alicia, I thought that root veggies were the most affected by pesticides so Kale is very interesting and fortunately I can but organic kale, so I appreciate you telling us this.

Strawberries are always available in the shops and in big tubs at good value so I guess are big business and this is the price we pay for being able to get them discounted.

So thanks for informing us of this as it's well worth knowing.

Jerry. 😊

Hi Jerry

I agree, I thought it was root vegetables that were affected as well as berries, apples etc.

I've always bought organic carrots and now have organic potatoes but I haven't come across organic sweet potatoes yet, I love sweet potatoes.

Yes we certainly the price with strawberries.

Thanks Alicia, this is interesting information, and something to bear in mind when making choices about purchases. I didn't realise about Kale in particular.

It certainly is and I also didn't know about the kale. A very useful article.
