After reading the reports on the "Dirty Dozen" produce (http://www.cnn.com/2010/HEALTH/06/01/dirty.doze...) I was bummed to see that pretty much all the produce I buy should really only be organic.

Do hydroponic vegetables like tomatoes and peppers contain pesticides?

Are other countries more strict with the use of pesticides?

From the Dirty Dozen list is says to avoid domestic blueberries. So are ones from other countries safer? I also noticed that hydroponic peppers I buy tend to be from Canada or Sweden, and I buy these because it's rare that I see organic peppers in the store (even in Whole Foods)

So if I can't always buy organic, are there safer countries besides ours that I should try to get produce from?
