Would you prefer fruit that grew near a city road, after many decades of cars passing by that place while burning leaded fuel?

Considering that orchards had lead arsenate sprayed on them it might actually be better

But you can't be sure the imported fruit wasn't grown in the same or worse conditions

Out of sight, out of mind.

Food arrives at the grocery store: perfectly checked, standardized, quality controlled, and ready to consume. /s

Only if there is a problem. /s
