These all easily wash off, and you need to be washing your fruit and veg because they are dirty.

Keep telling yourself they wash off and have no effects. Then call me from the oncology ward.

How about you go actually look up studies? I just did and confirmed:

  1. Washing fruit/veg removes most of the residue that's there
  2. The amounts typically left do not significantly increase your cancer risk

Do whatever the hell you want, but don't pretend the science is behind you when it is not. Take your smug misinformation somewhere else.
