Sex and Hot Mangos

Sorry, couldn't resist using a silly ploy to get your attention. ;-p

Okay, now that I have it, here's an article on irradiated mangos coming into the U.S. from India. I'm guessing they're those sickly looking bright yellow mangos I'm started seeing at local grocery stores lately:

you know one thing that bothers me too about this article is that if the government is unsure of the food handling practices of say India ..

whos to say theyre irradiating properly either ? what if they do it too much? or too little ? what about the poor workers that are exposed to this day an day out ...what is their protection?

india has some very poor track records on human safety.. and poor people working for cheap are often expendable

sigh sigh sigh

lol..good one

irradiation and/or hot water treatment is necessitated by OUR government importing, not: others exporting

therefore all mangos we would get that are not from like... florida (which to my knowledge doesn't ship much out other then special order) would be treated
'
it would def be on the side of too much rather then too little..too little - being illegal.

the awesome juicy -organic or not- mangos I was eating a few months ago were def dipped..it says so right on the box. the sikly ones, just like any sikly looking fruit have no indication of treatment

Thanks Anaken. Guess I'll try to buy more and more local stuff, which means less tropical fruit, which I love. :-/
