Yes the food is safe that goes through the X-ray machines. I always pack a little snack, the pretzels just aren't enough for me!

Yes, I'm sure it's safe. I doubt you could get radiation poisoning from the X ray machine. It only goes through once. If it were to go through 1000 times, then you might get poisoned, but ti only goes through once, I think.
Good Question. lol

absolutely 100 % safe to eat. The xrays have no effect on the food. The sun gives out radiation and we eat plenty of things grown in the sun. So in essence, if it werent for radiation, we would have no source of food!
Eat and enjoy!

Food does not absorb X-ray. It is safe to eat.

Hmmm. That's a good question. Nowadays,we can't be that picky considering we eat food that's nuked in the microwaved. Technically, either way radiation is going into our system.

Yes, it won't hurt the food at all. They only check if in the meantime nobody added anything in the package that shouldn't be there.

yes. the x-rays don't cause any more mutations to what you eat than the chemicals the food industry pumps into them.

Yes; irradiated food has been sold for years on the shelf - it kills germs, and unless you eat metal (??), the radiation doesn't hang around.

yes, safe as can be. they would not use x-rays like that if they was not safe.
