Website links Fukushima radiation to American ground beef

    1 of 1 2 of 1

      The POTRBLOG is claiming that ground beef in the U.S. has been contaminated with plutonium, strontium, and gamma-producing radionuclides.

      The video below links this to the Fukushima nuclear disaster.

      The good news, according to the video, is that the cesium level is 2,000 times less than the minimum allowed by European countries for infant food.

      The website is seeking donations to continue conducting tests.


      Not everyone believes the U.S. government is doing enough to investigate the fallout from Fukushima.

      Why would i want to consume American meat?
      Cloned beef (and other meats) is legal for sale in the US without mandatory labeling, according to Wikipedia.
      How widespread is it? I do not know.
      https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cloning#Ethical_issues_of_cloning
      "On December 28, 2006, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved the consumption of meat and other products from cloned animals.[42] Cloned-animal products were said to be virtually indistinguishable from the non-cloned animals. Furthermore, companies would not be required to provide labels informing the consumer that the meat comes from a cloned animal.[43]"
