It's actually pretty normal for most food to get irradiated if it's going into a warehouse. It's good at killing bacteria. That's the only reasonable reason I can think of why the shrimp has this kind of contamination.

But like normally it's a sealed source of radioactive material that's just in the same room or maybe an x-ray gun or something. The crates of food often aren't even opened since radiation will punch straight through cardboard or wood or whatever. I have no idea what was going on for cesium-137 to end up in the shrimp. Or why cesium 137 was used in the first place because I've only ever heard of cobalt-60 being used for this

(I do chemical stuff in warehouses)

Walmart: taps RFK Jr on the shoulder, "psst (they) don't want people getting positive health effects against evil vaccines by big pharma these bring, make sure this doesn't happen again"

RFK jr: the worm in his brain salutes, then his own hand moves to salute, "yes sirs, that's brilliant, first they take our medicines, then they sell us a cure, it's obvious 'natural' radiation like this is good or they wouldn't try to ban it"

isn't this how godzilla started

The FDA is just trying to prevent you from gaining shrimp-based superpowers

Don't drink the water and don't breathe the air

so uhh, where those shrimp been? Fukushima? love to hear about fission products in the food supply. I'm glad the radiation detectors at the ports work at least.

Ok everyone! If you have "Radioactive Shrimp" on your bingo card, mark it off! I'll be around to check any bingos if you got em!

Hmm, maybe they were just doing some kind of imaging and it got contami- CESIUM-137?!

Suppose you're thinking about radioactive shrimp, then someone mentions "shrimp" or "radioactive"...out of the blue, no explanation.

Ughhhh how am I supposed to be Shrimpman now!?

Just when you think you're about to become a superhero the man steps in and takes it away!

Actually... Wait a sec... If I bite the radioactive shrimp does it gain the superpower? Does it become manshrimp!?
