To estimate the exposure of the Belgian population to food contaminated with pesticide residues andto determine what pesticides people are actually consuming, a total diet study—individual approach—was performed. Fourteen kinds of fruits, 22 kinds of vegetables, and 7 other food items (coffee, drinking water, rice, tea, wine, bran, and wheat flour) were selected as major representatives of the Belgian diet. During the 2 years of study (April 1991- March 1993), about 3698 samples were analyzed and 21 163 analyses were performed. The first part of this study demonstrates that no residues are found in 31.3% of leafy vegetables, 72.3% of other vegetables, 51.4% of fruits, and 67.2% of other samples. In particular cases, some critical situations still exist, especially for leafy vegetables. Also, contamination of foreign samples is not easy to determine, because origins are not always traceable.
