It happens to me all the time: I’m at a grocery store and wondering what foods and produce I really MUST buy organic (even though, frankly, I try to buy everything organic, sometimes you just don’t have the option). I used to carry around a list that I lost a long time ago, so I have since been relying on my not-so-reliable memory to guide me through. Well, it’s time we cleared that list up.
