Dangerous pesticides found in apples, situation in Hungary particularly alarming 😔

A study by Pesticide Action Network Europe and the Hungarian Nature Conservation Association revealed that conventional apples in Europe, particularly in Hungary, contain multiple pesticide residues, including neurotoxic and PFAS pesticides. The EU has not yet tested for the combined toxicity of these pesticides, despite legal obligations. The report warns that many Hungarian apples are unsuitable for infants and recommends choosing organic options. The presence of harmful pesticides like fludioxonil and acetamiprid raises serious health concerns, particularly for children. The report calls for stricter regulations on pesticide use.
