Celery

Also high in pesticides is celery. This crunchy green vegetable is high in vitamins K and C, and is super-low in calories.

"Nobody likes to find a caterpillar-damaged stalk in their celery bunch," says Stuart Reitz, PhD, a research entomologist with the USDA. To really reap the health benefits of celery opt for organic varieties from your local grocery store or farmers market.
