Looking at the pesticide scores, one should not eat any fruit/vegetable without peeling if it has any.
That is why you wash your food before eating it same as you do with legumes and rice (that likely also have had pesticide on them).
In South Korea (where I used to live for a while) it's quite common to wash fruit with soapy water at home before eating them.
