Pasteurized milk is healthy and safe. Irradiated strawberries are healthy and safe, and they taste and look the same. Should she be allowed to sell an unsafe combination of fresh dairy and contaminated fruit ?

Have you ever even tried fresh strawberries or drank fresh raw milk? No? You should try it, it won't kill you. We are omnivorous animals and our stomach is made for fresh stuff. You can even eat fresh raw meat or steaks that were rotting for months to get mold on them.
In Italy you can get fresh ice cream made with seasonal fresh fruits and raw milk from the local milk farmer in nearly every village. Have you ever heard "Don't eat ice cream in Italy, it will make you sick"? In Vietnam you can buy fresh meat from small stalls at the roadside, and they don't use fridges. Ice cream with fresh fruits is nothing special. As long as fresh ingredients get processed and eaten asap it's no problem at all. It's not like they wait a month before they freeze the strawberries and milk.
