Strontium-90 It has a 29-year half-life, which means that it can take hundreds of years to decay to what some would say was a negligible level. Exposure in water and food may increase bone cancer and leukemia. ( This element loves getting into people's bones! ) Resulting from above ground testing.

No one is getting radiation burns or radiation sickness from this level of Cs-137. The problem would be mutagenesis and cancer in the long term due to exposure of soft tissues to ionizing radiation from ingested Cs 137. Cs tends to accumulate in milk so nursing mothers should be extra cautious.

Stephen Baines @stephenbaines.bsky.social

Nope. Should be separated from normal waste as it's an element, is mobile and acts like potassium in cells so enters the food chain. However, it has only a 30 year half life, so it can be stored until it decays sufficiently (~150 years -- as opposed to some isotopes which take thousands of years).

I wouldn't buy shrimp at Walmart in any case. Here in TX, we have a Walmart killer. HEB. And they're going straight at Walmart. For example, this new HEB is right across the street from a Walmart Superstore... www.mysanantonio.com/business/art...

Manor gave Walmart a 10-year exclusive. The 10 years is up, and now HEB is out to sink Walmart in Manor. I lived in Manor during the pandemic, when the coming HEB was just a rumor. Manor residents are frickin' thrilled that they're getting an HEB. HEB is going to kick Walmart's ass. Easily.

What the hell is a bag of shrimp doing near a radioactive isotope?

So I don't remember much from food microbiology but they did talk about using radioactive materials of some kind to kill microbes and parasites in shrimp. The radioactive material isn't supposed to actually come into physical contact with the shrimp itself though.

Back bearing more info. Check out the Wikipedia page.

Screen shot of a Wikipedia page. It says: Not Radioactive, Irradiated food does not become radioactive; only particle energies that are incapable of causing significant induced radioactivity are used for food irradiation. In the United States this limit is 4 mega electron volts (MEV) for electron beams and x-ray sources—cobalt-60 or caesium-137 sources are never energetic enough to induce radioactivity. Particles below this energy can never be energetic enough to modify the nucleus of the targeted atom in the food, regardless of how many particles hit the target material, and so radioactivity can not be induced.[23]

It’s true that food irradiation doesn’t make food radioactive. Contamination from a cesium-137 source used in food irradiation, however, could cause something like this. It is very unlikely but could occur in very negligent conditions with systemic safety & monitoring failures on the part

of the company & regulators imo. The amount of Cs contamination that was detected on the shrimp isn’t a substantial threat to health by itself, but the fact that it’s there at all tells us that the conditions the shrimp were stored or processed in are not fit for products for human consumption.

The US maintains a system of radiation detectors at ports of entry specifically because other countries may fail to maintain radiological safety and control. So, while this should have never gotten so far as to be detected at the port, the US side of radiological safety is working as intended here.

It sounds like the food already hit the shelves, though, instead of being stopped at the port.

“At this time, no product that has tested positive or alerted for Cesium-137 (Cs-137) has entered the U.S. commerce. FDA is working with distributors and retailers that received product…after the date of first detection of Cs-137… from shipments that did not alert for Cs-137”

Well that's good. This is just about being extra cautious then, I guess.

Anna Biela @nuclearanna.bsky.social

Yeah, the caution is warranted imo, but it’s probable no one in the US has actually been harmed imo. By the Cs anyway. The recall also mentions that the Cs detection indicates the conditions it was handled & stored in aren’t up to food safety standards.

Of course not detected isn’t the same as not contaminated; no way to know for sure until more of it is intercepted and tested. But Cs is easy to detect in very small amounts (it releases strong and characteristic gamma waves) when you’re looking for it and have the right equipment.

And the FDA appears to be taking this seriously and investigating the failures that made it possible for radioactive cesium to come into contact with food.

I’m sure there’s no connection between these shrimp and the primary isotopes that have been leaking from Fukushima for 14 years and continue to leak today. Right?

Uh .. say WHAT? "If you have ... purchased ... shrimp from Walmart that matches this description, *throw it away,"* the FDA said... Radioactive Waste is a hazardous material.. why should ANYONE put it in municipal waste? Send it BACK... to Walmart. They should have vetted the source better.
