...See, an apple a day may have kept the doctor away 250 years ago 
when Benjamin Franklin included the phrase in his almanac. But if that 
apple comes loaded with obesity-promoting chemicals --- nine of the 
ten most commonly used pesticides are obesogens, and apples are one of 
the most pesticide-laden foods out there --- then Ben's advice is way 
out of date


I look forward to market saturday -
