Watermelon
Watermelons imported from China, like apples, can be hazardous. They do use a lot of pesticides on them, admittedly. The chemicals used on these fruits would allow them to grow quicker and keep producing, but that is not always a good thing because these chemicals would cause the fruit to spoil from the inside out. As a basic guideline, only purchase fruits from your neighborhood market.

Garlic
China’s excessive use of pesticides in agriculture, as you may have guessed, is a major issue. Farmers have no problems using as much as they want because their government does not set a limit on how much they can use. They have no qualms about using it if it means generating more revenue! Because garlic is so absorbent, pesticide use is a major concern. We strongly advise you to avoid purchasing garlic from China.
