Although isotope has been using for half century. but still a little people know it tooks a important place in food industry.
One example, garlic is a kind of vegtable which has many benefits to our body, but it cannt be stored for long time at ordinary condition. Scientists took advantage of isotope rediation to make the garlic store long time.
Last sunday, when I pass by a open market, I saw some peasents were selling their dry garlic. very good looked and big. I try to buy some. the peasants toold me the garlic ws treaded by laser! I surprised by their words, its the first words I heard. I asked them how to tread by laser, from their description, I know its isotope treatment, rather than laser.
Why they prefer lser than isotope? may they be afraid of radiation. but laser has no such effect.
How do you think of radiated food? Are you afraid of it?
