Concerning levels of radioactive cesium found in green tea in Japan

The farmers know that tea is a bio-accumulator and are being diligent. However, other farmers may not be so honorable. Since Japan is "too big to fail", green tea from Japan may be sold to, re-packaged, then marketed through other companies. Just sayin' - we probably won't be able to depend upon governments to enforce Made in Japan labeling or radiation testing of suspect foods.

Also, considering this is an entire northern hemisphere event, it may be wise to stay away from known bio-accumulating foodstuffs altogether for awhile...quite awhile. What goes up, must come down and nobody knows where these little isotopes will end up, exactly.

For safety reasons, unfortunately, I will not be buying anything from Japan - food or otherwise. For sanity reasons, I will not be buying anything from the makers of the nuclear plants themselves (GE). Since they compromise our media, government and very lives, (and it doesn't seem to matter who is in office) best to vote with dollars. Buy locally and support small American businesses, not corporations. This is the only way we can get our country back on track.

Buying food from small farms that are doing everything to mitigate radiation and other toxicity in their products also seems to make sense. Good for their business, good for our health, good for our country's economy.
