More details on exactly whose shoes were radioactive in this article (Nike, lol... no mention in the US press, for the most part).
Bloomberg: Radioactive shrimp and sneakers: The global trail leading to Indonesia
"...But in July, inspectors in Los Angeles - then other ports on either side of the US - discovered something strange: shipments of prawns, and Nike branded sneakers, emitting faint traces of man-made radiation. ...
Minuscule particles of the isotope found their way into more than 20 factories, including shrimp being packed into refrigerated containers by one of Indonesia’s largest seafood exporters and at a big factory producing shoes for brands including Nike and Adidas."

"A penetrating look at the #radioactive desert of the #NavajoNation suffering from the effects of decades of #UraniumMining, Demon Mineral paints a devastating portrait of #bureaucratic inaction and its long- term impact on human life. This fascinating documentary, directed by Hadley Austin and produced by Dr. #TommyRock, #Dine', employs an array of well-sourced scientific data, coupled with archival and on-the-ground footage, to bring into vivid focus the heartbreaking toll of omnipresent #radiation on the #Arizona, #NewMexico, and #Utah Indigenous population. With few avenues available to offset their suffering — compounded by sustained apathy from politicians who might be able to help — a group of #Indigenous scientists, elders, and #activists strive to reclaim Diné #Bikeyah, the sacred land of the Navajo, and gain compensation for their contaminated lands. The illuminating 'Demon Mineral' is an essential vehicle for those directly impacted by this dire situation to draw attention to their plight." — Zaki Hasan

Oh look, more Cesium-137 shrimp! Missed this recall. Maybe I *should* go wandering around the stores with my Geiger counter, LOL!
FDA: "Sea Port Products Corp is Recalling Raw Frozen Easy Peel White Shrimp Because Product May Have Become Contaminated with Cesium-137 (Cs-137)"

"...Coordinating Minister for Food Affairs Zulkifli Hasan stated that the shrimp that returned after failing to enter the U.S. is still safe to consume.
"The ones that have returned (his doubles) there are some whose content is very minimal, only 68. So that please can be eaten because our upper threshold is 500, while the yesterday was only 68, "said Zulhas quoted Kompas (30/9)...."

I agree, the radioactive anthrax bomb built to kill people is completely neutral because it's a technology. *Amazing* tool! I use the radioactive anthrax bomb every day, and I only get a bit of radioactive anthrax all over everything. I'm running a conference, Radioactive Anthrax Bombs For Good, promoting how it's being used for a lot of good! Sponsored by OpenRadioActiveAnthrax, a California nonprofit
