More packages of frozen shrimp potentially affected by radioactive contamination have been recalled, federal officials said Thursday.
California-based Southwind Foods recalled frozen shrimp sold under the brands Sand Bar, Arctic Shores, Best Yet, Great American and First Street. The bagged products were distributed between July 17 and Aug. 8 to stores and wholesalers in nine states: Alabama, Arizona, California, Massachusetts, Minnesota, Pennsylvania, Utah, Virginia, and Washington state.
The products have the potential to be contaminated with Cesium-137, a radioactive isotope that is a byproduct of nuclear reactions.



To quote Ron Burgundy:
Like, there’s a good chance that this leads to us discovering a “secret” nuke test, it would almost be worst case scenario if this “just happened”.
C-137 doesn’t just fucking happen, it and S-90 are fission byproducts.
Either someone tested a nuke in the ocean, or there’s somehow fission happening somewhere in the ocean without human involvement.

I don’t know about you, but I am certainly not cleaning my shelves well enough to avoid Cs-137 contaminating my shrimp…

Someone built their Satisfactory nuclear enrichment center too close to the local Bubba Gump’s.
I can’t justify nuclear. I want to, but it’s such a daunting setup and rocket fuel works well enough.
I’m still working out heat sinks and haven’t even gotten into nitrogen besides parking a fused assembler next to one spot. This game gets wild, fast.
I’m building my first circular factory. I think I hate it, but it looks really neat
Yous askin too many questions, bub. Keep askin and ya may just find out.
Shrimp source is from Indonesia company. Opposite side of Fukushima. Maybe they are transhipping their garbage to deregulated shithole countries hoping US won’t notice.
Atlantis is joining World War III
The way shit is going if an ancient nuclear capable country of mermaids just showed up and took over…
Probably wouldn’t be the worst thing
I, for one, would welcome our new mermaid overlords.
The radiation was detected in the shipping container, not the shrimp corpses.
