I wish all beef was irradiated. If your that concerned about impurities and an insignificant scale of radiation poluting your body become vegan. Irradiation is harmless and the benefits is e.coli free meat that can save lives. The only reason it hasn't been made a standard practice is unreasonable fears.
This irradiation hate should belong with pasteurization.
