Radioactivity in Foods. II. Evidence of Fallout Contamination during 1958 and 1959
During 1958 and 1959, approximately 5,000 samples of 50 different human and animal foods were examined for total radioactivity resulting from fall-out. Highest total concentration was found in the animal fodders and tea. Among the animal fodders, the alfalfas were about 4 times as radioactive as the corn ensilages.
