I am concerned about the pesticides used on apples, so I always peel apples even though I know I am throwing away some of the nutrients. Sometimes I scrub them, but there’s such a waxy coating on most of the apples that I feel like some of the pesticide is still left in the wax residue. How do you handle the pesticide issue?

I have a spray bottle of apple cider vinegar that I wash all my vegetables and fruits with. I pick apples in the fall and I know the person that grows them. Even if pesticides are not used apples still sometimes have the waxy coat depending on the type of apple it is.
