Guardian graphic. Data from Consumer Reports analysis of common fruits and vegetables included in the USDA’s Pesticide Data Program within the last seven years.

Note: Risk levels are based on chronic exposure, and correspond to the number of servings a 35-pound child (about the size of a four-year-old) could safely consume each day. Serving sizes represent about two-thirds of an adult's portion. While adults can have more servings, the differences in risk levels remains the same. Read more on methodology here.
