About vegetables
Buying vegetables:
All vegetables should be firm to the touch, not limp. When you can try to buy vegetables with the stem or green part attached.
Organic
Try to buy organic bell peppers, celery, spinach, lettuce and potatoes as when non-organically grown these have the highest percentage of pesticide residues.
Non-organic
If you are on a budget, buy non-organic onions, sweet corn, asparagus, peas, cabbage and broccoli as these are low in pesticides, even when grown conventionally.
Storage
Most vegetables store well in a refrigerator. Some vegetables such as broccoli, root vegetables such as carrots and parsnips benefit from storing by standing in water as this seems to prevent them from going limp.
Grow your own
If you have the opportunity then grow your own vegetables. Choose varieties that are hard to obtain from conventional stores such as exotic squashes or the wonderful sungold tomato.
