As often as possible

That's how often Consumer Reports in its current issue recommends buying the following ten items in their organic form, since, even after washing, those not organic have been shown consistently to carry much higher levels of pesticide residue: apples, bell peppers, celery, cherries, imported grapes, nectarines, peaches, pears, potatoes, red raspberries, spinach, and strawberries. The local farmers have the very best potatoes, spinach, and bell peppers that a person could ever want. Right now, courtesy of the South Congress farmers' market, we've been feasting on the tastiest, sweetest, plumpest spinach, organic (and this is) or not that anybody could ever wish for.
