    Fructose: (Corn Syrup) Sweet, But Dangerous

          I didn’t know about the Fructose issue. I was conscious to avoid artificial sweetners like Aspartine. A real eye opener, thanks for posting.

    Thanks for doing that Allan, potatos must be Hokaido also. The ”Gobo” or burdock used in the kimpirra burger is still a mystery, perhaps its frozen imported from China.

    Wonder where the potato fries from Moss Burger originate from??? I only eat kimpirra rice burger and fries being vegetarian. Need to confirm before I eat my 100th Kimpirra burger.

    I live close by at Azabu Juban and walk by that Azabu crossing frequently. Can you redo the test after it rains and see if readings increase or decrease and perhaps revisit the same spot one month later? If its Cesium it could be there for 30 years!
