REFLECTION QUESTIONBasic Needs & SecurityWhat surprised you about the two produce lists? How will you use these lists for your grocery shopping? Have you used these lists before?
Katherine Ringeisen 4/03/2022 10:42 AMI was shocked about how many of the produce I buy were ranked so highly on the list. Strawberries are my favorite fruits and to see strawberries as number 1 on the list of contaminated food was an unsettling thought. I have never seen a list like this before and will definitely be more carful about the produce I buy and from whom.
