Canada looking at a proposal to sell Irradiated Ground Beef in stores
Looks like Canada is think about allowing markets to sell ground beef that has been treated with radiation. This would supposedly help kill off E. Coli bacteria.

I don't think I would be too pumped about eat beef that has been treated with radiation. I don't know how much research has gone into it, but I just see 10 years from now health problems being linked to it though.

AFAIK, the meat doesn't actually become radioactive.

What do you call a cow with no legs that's been exposed to low levels of ionizing radiation?

If I can have a Rads meter when I eat, then I'm ok with this, especially if I choose to eat a Radstag Steak or grilled Deathclaw.

Can we choose our level of radiation? Like rare, medium or well done?

Dammit.
I should have said: Rare, medium or mutated!
And now I've ruined both jokes! I go to box for 2 minutes and feel shame.
