Same goes for other soft fruit. Quick tip to anyone here: the less you remove from a fruit of vegetable before you eat it, the more toxines are left on them - if you can't afford to buy everything organic, consider the ones hard to wash and/or peel first.

Yes, and the same goes for other world areas like the US and China (a recent study even warned of PFAS in bottled water from China).
(The linked article is paywalled by the way.)

Frozen is healtier and is usually cheaper than fresh. Organic is healthier than pesticides.
