[pct-l] trail snacks

[Russell Garner]

Depends on your beliefs concerning irradiation. If you've eaten MREs you've
had some irradiated foods. If you drink ultra-pasteurized milk (irradiation
is part of the process), you've consumed irradiated foods.

Why is irradiated meat bad? Isn't that something being advocated for human
food too? I remember reading articles about it a couple years ago. It seemed
to that the process was safe, but had an unwarranted stigma because it used
radiation. Does it really add anything to the food? I thought it just killed
anything loving in it. 

Not that I'm considering the dog jerky for my hike. I'm just curious. ;)
