          That’s plutonium. You would die of radiation poisoning long before you could ever even come close to developing cancer.

    Yes, it does look delicious.

    But I can’t help but think about this being the consequences of dying everything we eat unholy colors. Maybe radioactive material wouldn’t be so tasty looking if we didn’t give kids candy that looks like radioactive material.

        I’m talking about thermally cooling it down. If you put it in a freezer it will cool down, but the nuclear process will not change speed.
