>>2602690>Checking for irradiated foodGamma rays are a pass through contaminant. Most meat in the USA is actually exposed to radiation--by law--in order to "cross state lines"
it's called "cold pasteurization"
>Avoiding dangerous areasYou're in more danger from cell towers than any other form of radiation--especially gamma radiation.
>Personal safetythis is why the dose meter was created.
For clarity: a gamma ray is a "high energy" un paired photon. The biggest danger of gamma radiation is that it breaks down DNA and/or helps introduce mutations into DNA--99% of "evolution" can be explained by cyclic exposure of earth to gamma radiation from celestial events.
Gamma radiation is a pass-through radiation so if something has been exposed to gamma bombardment you won't see residual radiation in the thing it passed through.
