Just finished reading an article about how raw alfalfa sprouts easily spread e-coli, but the problem could be solved by irradiation. So why don’t we?

After all, the US is the land of GMO, pesticides, washed eggs, chlorinated chicken, and pasteurized dairy. How could irradiated produce be any worse?

    I don’t think it’s physically possible for Americans or any other human to radiate food out of themselves.

      Ukraine radiates food all over Europe and Africa - metaphorically speaking. At least, they did prior to the Russo-Ukraine war. Don’t know if they do anymore.

      If I eat a lot of certain aliums and/or spices, you will definitely find it radiating out of me.
