Produce industry presses USDA on pesticide report

[COMMENT:  It's impossible to set "safe" limits of exposure when one has no idea how much of something a given individual will consume. Some people get by on 1300 calories a day and others require 5000, such as athletes. Additionally, it's not unheard of for one particular favorite food to make up a large portion of daily caloric intake in some people. There is no "safe" amount of pesticide that a food can contain. The safe amount is no amount.]
