🚨 Texas AG Ken Paxton is investigating major grocery chains and threatening legal action for spraying organic produce with the pesticide Produce Maxx, without telling customers.

Produce Maxx is an EPA-registered antimicrobial containing high levels of hypochlorous acid (a form of chlorine).

While used to kill bacteria and extend shelf life, this post-harvest spraying on organic fruits and vegetables poses risks to consumers who assume their "organic" produce is pesticide-free.

Many stores hide the misting systems and provide no warnings or instructions to rinse the produce, despite federal law and USDA rules requiring a thorough rinse with drinking water before eating to maintain organic status.

Paxton calls it misleading and potentially illegal, demanding clear signage about the pesticide treatment and rinsing requirement—or face enforcement.

Texas shoppers buying organic deserve to know what's really on their food.
