A news program featured how to cook radioactive-cesium-contaminated foods other day.
vegetable which leaves we eat
1) wash
2) boil
3) pickle them in vinegar.
Cesium dissolves in water, much better in acid.
root vegetable
1)wash
2)peel, especially peel deeply pit or scar.
meat
slice and boil
fish
remove gut and skin and scale
boil
Radioactive cesium half-life time is about 30 years. But eaten cesium is said to decrease to half in 100 days in the human body through egestion, thank you poo. TV man said that to egest smoothly, high-fiber food was good. Hey, wait a minutes, does eating high-fiber food mean another cesium ingesting? Where can we get cesium free foods?
I am realizing I have to have foods contaminated by radioactive material.
I have been so nervous about them, and struggling to find vegetables gathered in places as far as Fukushima, to find imported foods.
It is not practical way of life,
I have spent more than twice money on food and tons of hours. And have been spending months with no pepsi, no coke, no restaurant because they may use something gathered near Fukushima, or may be bottled near Fukushima. I may lose my friends.
I feel like myself as dingy scavenger.

Japanese cesium tea leaves were exported and found in France
Some raw tea leaves grown in Shizuoka prefecture were found to have excessive level of radioactive cesium. What is worse Shizuoka is/(was? already) famous for excellent tea.
The tea farmers insisted that dried tea leaves should NOT to be analyzed. Because it is very clear that much more dried tea leaves would be found to be excessive level. Shizuoka prefectural governor, Kawakatu Heita said boiled tea would have weakened amount of cesium.
well, i might change myself to kind of bitch mode, but what kind of moron the prefectural governor is? They killed tea leaves including low-level of cesium too. And, they exported tea leaves including high-level of cesium??
well.. some agricultural product have been found to be exported with deceptive labeling of origins. Their label said that they were made in the prefectures which located far from Fukushima, but actually they were gathered in the prefectures very near Fukushima or Fukushima, and contained a lot of cesium.
I don't know the truth about this tea area yet. But either way, this is shame.

Tea leaf farmers don't accept dried leaf analysis
Excessive levels of radioactive cesium was detected in the tea leaves. Main of the tea leaf growing area is lying to the west of Tokyo, opposite side to Fukushima. As the area is farther from Fukushima than Tokyo, some people looked to be shocked. (A lot of farm products grown in the area between Fukushima and Tokyo are sold because their analysis showed under levels)
One of the most shocked people are tea leaf farmer.
Monitored tea leaves are raw. Government told dried leaves should be monitored too.
But tea leaf farmers don't accept dried leaf tea analysis.
When making dried leaves, leaves lose their moisture but they don' lose radioactive things. So it is very clear that analysis of dried leaf will show higher radioactive than raw leaf.
They insist boiled up tea will show lower level than guideline.

My hometown
My hometown is located western Japan.
After my mother given serious surgery a few years ago, I often come back to their house, and try to stay as long as I can.
After the Fukushima nuclear plant accident, no radioactive fallout was monitored except a few days of April there. I know that the radioactive materials from Fukushima was found in all over the world. My hometown must have had much more radioactive materials than Hawaii or Iceland, etc. etc. Still my hometown looks clean, at least to me who is living in Tokyo.
I love fruit, vegetable, and fishes from my hometown, yummy and no radiation. However I don't feel secure when I am staying at my parent house.
Because another nuclear plant is standing very near from their house.
Japan is expected to come into a earthquake age. I am sorry we are expected to have another earthquakes.
Strange to say I feel some kind of relief when I stay in Tokyo. Living in Tokyo is stressful, I wear mask, I am so nervous with food. Still I don't have nuclear plant near. Tokyo is more than 200 kilometers away from Fukushima nuclear plant.
