This list was created by the EWG (environmental working group non profit organization) by testing the amounts of pesticides in fruits and veggies.  The list is ranked from worst to best so 1 is the most amount of pesticides found in a fruit or veggie.  My family rule is dont eat anything in the top 10 unless its organic!
