More packages of frozen shrimp potentially affected by radioactive contamination have been recalled, federal officials said Thursday.
California-based Southwind Foods recalled frozen shrimp sold under the brands Sand Bar, Arctic Shores, Best Yet, Great American and First Street. The bagged products were distributed between July 17 and Aug. 8 to stores and wholesalers in nine states: Alabama, Arizona, California, Massachusetts, Minnesota, Pennsylvania, Utah, Virginia, and Washington state.
The products have the potential to be contaminated with Cesium-137, a radioactive isotope that is a byproduct of nuclear reactions.
“Nuclear is the way” “Fukushima was nothing, it was all media drama” sigh… I’m surprised this hasn’t happened earlier… Or it has but no one’s been measuring it… Where can I buy one of those radioactivity measuring devices? I would like to keep eating fish and seafood at least for a few years longer…
