Well-done @amazonaesh on this exposing article.
I will have to agree with you on the notion that we stereotype irradiated food for the thought that they are quite harmful. So, awareness for acceptability will be the first step in making this possible down here in Nigeria.
I must also commend your effort in pointing out that it doesn't totally make the food an alien nor does it make it radioactive forever, hence, we need to still preserve it.
I bet I haven't noticed nor heard about the Radura sign before. I most likely will watch out from now on.
Nice work on taking us through the important things that an irradiation facility needs to have.
Cost Cost Cost! This is sure gonna be a limiting factor for adoption of this helpful technique. But, on a long run, if we could weigh the benefits over this initial cost, we wouldn't find it too costly.
Well-done for this rundown.... I think Irradiation is a good one for Food
Cheers
Thanks boss @mrbreeziewrites... You see I'm still thinking on what can be done on sensitizing us in this part of the country. Despite the fact that my class took a course on Food Irradiation in final year, some of my colleagues are still of the opinion that they can't take irradiated food. Imagine, food scientists
After all, food scientists or not, we are Nigerians, the mentality remains a thing....
Thanks for the response.
