Description:
Consumer Reports analyzed pesticide residue data and found 6 fruits and vegetables with the highest risk - blueberries, watermelon, bell peppers, potatoes, green beans, and kale and mustard greens. Nearly half of domestic bell pepper samples contained a banned pesticide. Some green bean samples had pesticide levels over 100 times the safe level. Washing only helps somewhat as some pesticides are systemic in the produce. Choosing organic, limiting high-risk foods to half a serving per day, and freezing bulk organic fruits are recommendations. Sweet potatoes are a safer alternative to potatoes and cantaloupe to watermelon.

The moon has never been green and will probably never turn green, despite what any viral internet memes may tell you. <br/><br/>This hoax started in 2016 when someone jokingly posted a meme on Facebook claiming that the moon would turn green on May 29. After it went viral, someone thought it would be funny to alter it by changing the date to 4/20 and adding that this only happens every 420 years. Allegedly, the moon turns green because of its close proximity to Uranus in the night sky. Uranus actually is green, but it's also almost 2 billion miles away, and there's really no way it could illuminate the surface of the moon. It's so dim that it's nearly impossible to see without a telescope or binoculars. Even though the moon failed to turn green, people continue to share these \")
