Whew, and that's especially true when they come from out of country - as a large percentage do.  Many countries have fewer controls on the pesticides used.

Regards to the list:

Besides farming, I make wedding cakes.  The trend these days is to have
fresh flowers on the cake instead of ones made with icing.  I cringe
when florists poke stems into the cake icing unless they are organic
flowers.  I warn my brides about insecticides in non-organic flowers and
suggest their florists use plastic protectors, but it seems to go in one
ear and out the other.
