  • Yes.

    From Wikipedia:

    Plutonium is identified as either weapons-grade, fuel-grade, or reactor-grade based on the percentage of 240Pu that it contains. Weapons-grade plutonium contains less than 7% 240Pu. Fuel-grade plutonium contains 7%–19%, and power reactor-grade contains 19% or more 240Pu. Supergrade plutonium, with less than 4% of 240Pu, is used in United States Navy weapons stored near ship and submarine crews, due to its lower radioactivity.

    Weapon Grade Plutonium has lower concentration because Plutonium has a high rate of spontaneous decay which means it leads to issues with detonations in bombs.












  • I mean you can make your cheese the same way and tell your friends its parmegiano reggiano or whatever, you just can’t sell it under that name.

    In the same vein I can make a Lego set and share it with my friends and we can call it Lego but the moment I try selling it then the Lego company comes knocking.

    It’s not gate keeping, it’s just trademark but for food. People may disagree with it but I personally think it’s a great way of keeping those food traditions alive and ensuring you get what you paid for. Also pretty sure that if you don’t live in the EU you can just call your cheese the same and nothing will happen to you.
