I always try to buy organic, if I can. It’s a bit more expensive I know, but at least no invisible chemical cocktails.

I wonder if peeling/removing skin removes chemicals.

Yet it’s probably better to eat apples than not eat them.

I wonder how much washing with water helps to remove the residues. Aren’t most of the pesticides water soluble, so they can be easily removed?

Never eat the funnel area around the stem of a bought apple. That’s where everything collects.
