Are conventional bananas high in pesticides?!


Question: Are conventional bananas high in pesticides?
Answers:

Imported bananas are often suspected as having a lot of pesticide residues. However, all of the 359 samples of imported bananas analyzed by FDA in 1997, and the 268 samples analyzed in 1996 were free of any violative residues. In 1994, less than 1% of the 280 imported bananas sampled had violative residues.
