I'm not sure what's on them that causes my body to react that way, but it makes me more than a bit afraid to chow down on some chemical-laden greens.

Because the animal is higher up the food chain, in some cases the pesticides get more concentrated. I remember being surprised when I found out how contaminated some species of fish are. Striped Bass in SF Bay are one bad example. They are full of chemicals from the runoff of the agricultural land and from eating lots of smaller fish who are also contaminated.

So your approach to washing is good both figuratively and literally! :-0 A little paranoid is good sometimes!

It terrifies me to think about what I may be unknowingly feeding my kids. We eat alot of fruit. From now on I will definitely be looking for organic. Thank you so much for the information.
