Buy Organic? app for iPhone and iPad

Have you ever wondered if the extra cost for organic fruits and vegetables is worth it? If so, this app is for you!

This Buy Organic? app can be used to determine the toxicity of pesticide residues found on 50 common fruits and vegetables grown both domestically and outside the U.S. The pesticide data was gathered by the U.S. Department of Agriculture and the toxicity data determined by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency. This information was then analyzed and simplified into easily consumed categories by Consumer Reports and is presented within this app. Recommendations are made about when it is safe to buy non-organic fruits and vegetables and when you should buy organic.

Features of this program include:
• Select from 50 common fruits and vegetables
• For each selection, the pesticide level is shown for U.S. and Imported grown
• Recommends when it is safe to buy non-organic varieties
• Allows for the favoriting of items and the display of only favorites
• Provides detailed help on how the data was gathered and analyzed, and how you can make intelligent decision at the grocery store.
