I’m tracking where a company got the shrimp to track were the cesium was coming from and why and wasn’t China. It was Indonesia.
Frozen shrimp packaged in Indonesia by PT. Bahari Makmur Sejati (BMS Foods) and distributed by Southwind Foods and Beaver Street Fisheries (for Walmart’s Great Value brand) were found to be potentially contaminated with Cesium-137, a radioactive isotope. This led to recalls of various brands of frozen shrimp sold in multiple states across the U.S. by Walmart and other retailers.
