	Hi

	A Banana has roughly 3520 pCi/kg of K-40. I am Faxing you a page
from the 
	CRC handbook of Radiation Measurement and Protection, by Allen
Brodsky 
	that shows many foods and their radioactivity. 

	I will ask around the office about the background dose in
Spokane, but 
	would say it is a bit higher than the US average.
