Reading newspapers, eating fresh strawberries

One of my favorite things to do in life is to read newspapers. Another is eating fresh strawberries. So this morning I read this Associated Press story by Carla K. Johnson, telling me that my strawberries are loaded with pesticide residue that affects my brain chemistry. What is the solution? Go broke happily eating organic strawberries, or become uninformed by stopping reading newspapers?

How about eating your favorite strawberries (being sure to wash them first) and being advised that hyperventilating greenie residue is often found all over the news articles? You don't have to stop reading them, just be prepared with a hefty antidote dose of the salt of common sense ;)

Ya got me, Julie! I am not sure that washing them takes out the chemical residue, though.

Well the question really is is the chemically brain altering strawberries changing your brain for the better? Aren't we assuming that that is bad?
