Can the food irradiated by the security machine be eaten?
Although direct irradiation of X-rays will have an impact on human body, X-rays will not be stored on objects, so the food detected by X-rays has no impact and can be safely eaten.

The radiation of an object mainly depends on its own content and composition, and foods such as fruits will not remain due to X-ray irradiation, and will not accumulate damage. International demonstrations and experiments on food irradiation safety began as early as the 1960s. Long-term animal experiments and human experiments have proved that irradiated food is harmless to human body.
