HIGH RADIATION BEEF SOLD IN JAPAN FROM JUNE 8-11, 2011. SOME EATEN,
SOME NOT. ARE YOU KIDDING ME?
Retailers and restaurant operators have voiced disappointment and
frustration as they are believed to have unknowingly sold meat
contaminated with radioactive cesium from Fukushima Prefecture.
Supermarket chain Fuji Grand’s Anan outlet in Tokushima Prefecture sold
103 packages of the beef in question between June 8 and 11. “We’re sorry
for inconveniencing our customers,” said Hiroaki Nishiyama, outlet
manager and food section chief. The supermarket put up notices Tuesday
warning of the radiation-tainted beef and is returning the money of
customers who purchased it.
