Depends on whether ionising radiation produces chemical compounds different from or in larger quantities than heat (cooking, in other words), or results in breakdown beneficial compounds (e.g. vitamins). Irradiation might also be used to mask unsanitary production or spoiled food. Take a tip from how we do things here in Italy - if we don't know where it comes from, and if we do and it isn't Italy, we don't eat it. Support your local market gardeners and farmers - eat fresh, seasonal produce and live a longer, healthier life.
Nice!
