"Perhaps the future of irradiated beef can best be predicted by where it is

not meeting resistance. The Center for Science in the Public Interest has

campaigned heavily in the past against much in the mainstream American diet

-- attacking milk, cheeseburgers and Chinese food for the damage they can do

to the body.But the group doesn't oppose the irradiating of beef, insisting

only on clear labeling. "Right now, for ground beef, it's one of the better

technologies available to eliminate E. coli," said Caroline Smith DeWall,

the group's director of food safety. "It's a consumer choice." "
