Honey with an unexpectedly atomic backstory. Trace cesium-137 from historic above-ground nuclear testing still cycles through some ecosystems, where plants can absorb it in place of potassium and bees ultimately carry traces into honey.
This specimen-style food product is intended to make an invisible piece of environmental history tangible. According to the maker, measured activity in sampled honey has remained far below the FDA intervention level.
8 oz bottle
Contains naturally occurring honey with trace Cs-137

Note: Radioactivity varies by sample and continues to decline over time due to the approximately 30-year half-life of Cs-137.
