If they glow in the dark, return them immediately!

Or put in a jar for use as a night light.

Never buy shrimp at Walmart or the Dollar Tree. And never eat sushi from AM\PM or 7-11.

[Waverunner]

but they taste extra fishy :)

[rwfok]

Have there been a number of nuclear bomb tests or nuclear reactor accidents in Indonesia? From what I’m reading Cesium 137 is a byproduct of nuclear fission. Any scientists available to confirm?

[kiryandil]

Has anyone hear if Walmart sold radioactive shrimp to the Red Dog saloon?

[shelterguy]

I remember China was selling us radioactive sheetrock.

[kiryandil]

Those wacky Chinese!

[JZelle]

The Firm warned us long ago.

[Ikeon]

I remember ch8na selling the U.S. radioactive sheet rock

iirc it was the 80's and they dumped it on the U.S. market because the red Chinese are total assholes trying to poison americans.

[HartleyMBaldwin]

Self-cooking shrimp. What’ll they think of next?

[Kenny Bania]

Yep. Purchasing anything perishable from Walmart, you’re asking for trouble.

Cs-137 is a product of nuclear fission and is used in medical devices and gauges, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention explains.

Right in the article.

Some places are not careful about how they dispose of their medical waste. There was a case in, I think Russia, where they had dump a machine and the radioactive powder was found and used for various things. Several people got quite ill.

“Walmart shrimp recalled over possible radioactive contamination”

the package label “radioactive free” didn’t mean what most people thought it meant ...

[PTBAA]

Who doesn’t want shrimp that cook themselves?

[ansel12]

“”””And never eat sushi from AM\PM or 7-11.””””

That is easy to say but hard to practice when the day old sushi is marked down so much from its first day price.

[rwfok]

Yes, thanks for reiterating that, but to be honest, I don’t trust much of what comes out of the CDC. If it is caused by medical waste, then it look’s like it’s just another consequence of the increased medical waste issue in Indonesia and elsewhere since the “pandemic” and wouldn’t be occurring otherwise.

[Harmless Teddy Bear]

If you think that third world countries were careful about how they disposed of their medical waste before 2020 I have some really bad news for you.

They weren't.

[SecondAmendment]

If you eat shrimp, you are rolling the dice with your health anyway.

There is a reason it isn't kosher, they are filthy animals.
