ABC News reports that the FDA is warning the general American public not to eat, sell, or serve certain types of Great Value raw frozen shrimp sold at Walmart — because it may be radioactive. Yes, really.
The Food and Drug Administration ( FDA) warned Americans that some shrimp products sold at Walmart may contain a radioactive substance known as Cesium-137. Newsweek reached out to Walmart for comment via email. The FDA warned that repeated low-dose exposure to Cesium-137 includes an "elevated risk of cancer" caused by DNA damage.
