Asparagus This is another kind of vegetable that's not really affected by pests and therefore isn't exposed to any chemicals, so you don't have to buy the organic kinds to avoid them. Any kind with a light green color and slightly purple tips is fine to buy, regardless of size.

Peas Peas are one of the least likely vegetables to have any leftovers of pesticides on them. Go for the big and green pods and you can safely say that you have a healthy, clean product.

Kiwi That hairy brown skin might taste bad but it works wonders when it comes to keeping harmful chemicals away from the sweet center. Much like other items on this list, it is still recommended to wash the kiwi before eating it.

Cabbage Cabbages are very easy to grow, so they aren't exposed to many fertilizers or pesticides. Pick any cabbage that looks shiny but still feels strong and crunchy, avoid any with yellowish spots and always remove the most outer layers of the cabbage.

Eggplant With a smooth and thick skin to protect it, the eggplant is a safe buy, organic or not. Look for ones that still feel hard to touch but have smooth, even color.

Papaya While pesticides are known to be found on the skin of the papayas, it has also been found that a good wash with water and a simple towel will remove almost all of them. If you see one in the store that looks a bit wrinkled it's still ok to buy, just give it a few days to ripen.Go to The NEXT Page for More Pictures >>>
