The Environmental Working Group has compiled the following list on the pesticide load of fruits and vegetables:
Starting with Worst Offenders:
Peaches
Apples
Sweet Bell Pepper
Celery – for some reason this one surprised me.
Nectarine
Strawberries
Cherries
Kale
Lettuce
Imported Grapes – yes the domestic rank better with a lower pesticide load.
