Subject: Irradiation Labeling, Docket No 98N-1038



Food and Drug Administration, Dockets Management Branch
5630 Fishers Lane, Room 1061
Rockville, MD 20857

Dear Food and Drug Administration, Dockets Management Branch,

The Subject mentioned above is a heiniously sneaky
way to try to get some kind of approval for radiated
or irradiated food. Please do not fall for it. Radiation
or irradiation of any kind is a dangerous contaminant.
It will lead to quicker decay of the food item and
therefore stronger bacterial infection of the food
item as well leading to short-term illnesses and long-term
nutritional problems (possibly death) in those who
eat it. 

Please protect the American Public and therefore the
World from this horrible threat. 



Sincerely,


Janine Kwasnik
