Description

The original release sheet reads: ATOMS PRESERVE FOOD What may be an important step in feeding a hungry world is a Canadian experiment in foo radiation. They treat newly-harvested crops with Cobalt 60 - radiating fruits and vegetables to retard spoilage. Early results have been spectacular. For example, treated potatoes will stay fresh in storage for 18 months. Twice as long as non-radiated vegetables. Farm produce will retain nutritional values long and the world will eat better at lower cost.
