Food irradiation, organics, and imports
how can you tell if the food you eat has been irradiated for longer shelf life? Does organic food certification mean that it hasn't been?

Exactly... the only certain way to know for sure that your food hasn't been irradiated is by eating food that's been certified as organic.

Dear Ysanne,
Thanks for your reply... one more detail... how about organic foods that are imported but certified organic... can we be sure that they are not irradiated too?
Thank you,
Rudy
Yes indeedy... any food that's labelled and sold as organic in the UK has to comply with this definition by law, in every respect, wherever it's grown, processed or manufactured.
