I can sympathize with Franz on one thing: irradiation shouldn't be an excuse for sloppy food handling practices.
To my knowledge, the only source of this charge is anti-nuke propaganda. It is a trumped-up charge. No advocate of food irradiation has ever claimed that it would be used to cover up unsanitary handling. I really don't like to see this kind of baseless assumption bandied about as if it were Gospel.
