Original Message I just went to the Japanese restraunt 1 hour ago and ordered my Radiation free food and asked for a cup of Hot Green Tea...and was told that this restraunt NO LONGER carries Green Tea!! WTF..A Japanese restraunt w/o Green Tea ...that is just like a President who Does Not Promise Change...Not a Reality! Anyways I was told it was due to the detection of Radioactive Strontium in the Tea.. What??

Just checked Kyodoo News and found this..

And if you are like me and do not Know WTF Strontium is. Here is the Wikipedia explanation..

[link to en.wikipedia.org]

...and BTW..The human body absorbs strontium as if it were calcium. Due to the elements being sufficiently similar chemically, the stable forms of strontium might not pose a significant health threat—in fact, the levels found naturally may actually be beneficial (see below) -- but the radioactive 90Sr can lead to various bone disorders and diseases, including bone cancer. The strontium unit is used in measuring radioactivity from absorbed 90Sr.
