PESTICIDES :: A PUBLIC PROBLEM
Pesticides
…on our food, even after washing;
…in our bodies, for years;
…& in our environment, traveling many miles on wind, water and dust.
What’s On My Food? is a searchable database designed to make the public problem of pesticide exposure visible and more understandable.
How does this tool work? We link pesticide food residue data with the toxicology for each chemical, making this information easily searchable for the first time.pesticides are a public health problem requiring public engagement to solve.
Use the tool, share it with others: we built it to help move the public conversation about pesticides into an arena where you don’t have to be an expert to participate.

I've heard a lot about high fructose corn syrup being bad and I finally heard why! The syrup is separated from the starch using lye that is made with mercury. A lot of the soda tests high in mercury. It was funny thing to start telling my kids to get the soda with sugar!
