New ‘Dirty Dozen’ out today! The list reveals the food most likely to contain cocktails of multiple pesticides and is now available to download. Use this handy leaflet to help you avoid the ‘dirtiest’ produce and make informed shopping decisions. Topping the list this year is soft citrus, which includes satsumas, tangerines and clementines. Despite some food items showing residues of up to 12 different pesticides, government safety limits continue to be set for just one chemical at a time, ignoring evidence that chemicals can become more harmful when combined. #thecocktaileffect #dirtydozen https://lnkd.in/ekN-tHyN
