Re: ionizing electrons, irradiation

[Guest guest]

Unless an herb or spice specifically states so, you can bet that it has been

irradiated. The universal " radura " is the symbol for this. For whatever

reason, spices are immune to required radura symbols, but I believe it is

labeled for meats and produce, and maybe packaged foods as well.

The term cold pasteurization sounds much more appealing and is often

advertised as so. I have seen irradiated ground beef in the supermarket

with a higher price. They should just rename it to " sterilized garbage " .

If meat production is bad now, what will it may like with the added " safety

buffer " of this technology?

Hmm, I wonder if these imported avocadoes and coconuts are treated.....
