[Ghost of Chernobyl ?] 1.5 Bq/Kg of Cs-137 from maple syrup in Canada

According to an online food shop Alter, 1.5 Bq/Kg of Cs-137 was measured from two samples of maple syrup in Canada.
1.
Cs-137 : 1.5 Bq/Kg
Production : 2011
2.
Cs-137 : 1.46 Bq/Kg
Production : 2011
Cs-134 was lower than detectable amount. This online shop assumes it may be from Chernobyl or / and historical nuclear tests.

[Le fantôme de Tchernobyl ?] 1,5 Bq/kg de Cs-137 dans du sirop d’érable au Canada

Selon Alter, un magasin d’alimentation en ligne, 1,5 Bq/kg de Cs-137 ont été relevés dans deux échantillons de sirop d’érable au Canada.

1.
Cs-137 : 1,5 Bq/kg
Production : 2011
2.
Cs-137 : 1,46 Bq/kg
Production : 2011

Le Cs-134 n’était pas présent en quantité détectable. Ce magasin en ligne présume que c’est sans doute dû à Tchernobyl ou /et aux essais nucléaires historiques.

About this site

This website updates the latest news about the Fukushima nuclear plant and also archives the past news from 2011. Because it's always updated and added live, articles, categories and the tags are not necessarily fitted in the latest format.
I am the writer of this website. About page remains in 2014. This is because my memory about 311 was clearer than now, 2023, and I think it can have a historical value. Now I'm living in Romania with 3 cats as an independent data scientist.
Actually, nothing has progressed in the plant since 2011. We still don't even know what is going on inside. They must keep cooling the crippled reactors by water, but additionally groundwater keeps flowing into the reactor buildings from the broken parts. This is why highly contaminated water is always produced more than it can circulate. Tepco is planning to officially discharge this water to the Pacific but Tritium is still remaining in it. They dilute this with seawater so that it is legally safe, but scientifically the same amount of radioactive tritium is contained. They say it is safe to discharge, but none of them have drunk it.
