This doesn't happen in normal countries.

Had to dig a bit deeper to find out where it all came from.

Imported from…..

(Drum roll please)

Indonesia

You are right, this doesn’t happen in normal countries.

We need to expand operations of The Bubba Shrimp Company and similar independent US producers

Yeah, most recalls are for chemical or biological contamination.

Well, that's not so bad. At least the shrimp were dead.

Four radioactive wasp nests were found at Savannah River in July. They were obviously trying to build a reactor, but were destroyed before that they had a chance to prompt critical.

One guess I've heard is that the shrimp is actually Chinese. The ship through Indonesia to avoid restrictions.
Westray: That this is some sort of coincidence. Because they don't really believe in coincidences. They've heard of them. They've just never seen one.

kdahm,

Savannah River isn't that far from me. I'm advised however that the wasps had their dosimeters on at all times.
