Avoid purchasing irradiated foods by making sure they aren't labeled with the "radura" symbol.
Purchase certified organic foods; National Organic Standards prohibit irradiation of foods.
PCC's position
PCC Natural Markets supports the prohibition against food irradiation in the USDA National Organic Standards.
PCC also supports the petition filed by the Center for Food Safety and Public Citizen, asking the FDA to rescind approval for irradiated ground beef in the National School Lunch Program.
