Labels changing on irradiated foods?

Something to think about when you hit the grocery store looking for healthy food for yourself and your family: do you want irradiated foods? Of course there's people who care and people who don't, and for those who do we're used to relying on food labels to get the information we want. But beware: the irradiation of food may not be clearly represented on food labels in the future as the FDA is considering changing the regulations to allow the word 'pasteurized' to be used to adequately represent the irradiation treatment process.There's little information on whether irradiated foods are harmful or not, but it's hardly natural and that makes it a bad idea in my book.
