    What surprised you about the two produce lists?
    Some of the fruits which I thought were healthy like Strawberries, spinach etc contain the highest levels of pesticides :(
    How will you use these lists for your grocery shopping?
    I will use the Clean Fifteen™ list buy and use Dirty Dozen™ lists to avoid buying as that helps me reduce exposure to toxic pesticides.
    Have you used these lists before?
    I have not used this list before.
