Action Alert:
The first fruit destined for New Zealand are mangoes. Scientists have discovered that when they are irradiated, carcinogenic compounds called 2-ACBs (2-a) are formed. But FSANZ is not convinced this matters. We are. Write or email Turners & Growers and tell them we don't want their irradiated food and to keep it out of New Zealand. Turners & Growers Limited: INTERNATIONAL DIVISION Suggested format for letter: To the management of Turners and Growers: I am deeply concerned by Turners and Growers intention to develop and use irradiation technology on produce destined for the NZ market. As a consumer I do not want this unsafe technology to be used and I will actively boycott produce that has been irradiated. Please consider the international experience - which has proved irradiation to be an unsafe practice - and has seen the rejection of produce by consumers. Don't make the same mistake.
