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.

In recent years, former US president Donald Trump has had a lot to say about felons and their right to vote. He has scolded the ones who wanted to cast a ballot, arguing that they should not have that privilege. But now, the tables have turned, and it looks like Trump himself could be facing the same predicament. Whether or not Trump is found guilty and what his sentencing entails are still uncertain. But the fact remains that someone who used to condemn felons wanting to vote might find himself in the same situation. And that would be a truly remarkable turn of events for a man who has always tried to portray himself as a strong and authoritative figure. We will keep you updated with the facts, on Fan Reviews News.")
