    If someone grinds up a bar of lead into fine powder and pours a bowl of mercury into a big vat of soup and then sends that vat out for delivery, do you think your precious western media is going to wait until the lab report comes in about the exact amounts of those contaminants present or are they going to say that person served up a vat of lead and mercury poisoning? Are you still going to eat some of the soup? Technically most of it by volume is not either of those two dangerous substances so you should be fine by your logic, just eat around those things.

      It fully depends on the concentrations of the toxic elements. Pretty sure I’ve swallowed my share of uranium or potassium while swimming in the ocean. The volume of water says little about the severity. Power plants release tons of “radioactive” water every year, the concentrations are simply managed to safe levels.
