Testing with an Inspector Geiger counter. Dec.7, 2012 With a 10 minute test, I had an average reading of 48.6 counts per minute. My background is around 35. But it went in a wider range than i'm used to, 25-60. My conclusion, for what it's worth, it got fukushima-ed slightly and caught in Indonesia, but at $14 a pound, I'm eating it! I wonder how high it is off the coast of Japan......
