That’s pretty cool, the potatoes glow green when exposed to radiation so it can be detected at a distance. I was wondering how it actually detected the radiation, but I wasn’t expecting them to glow, that’s wild.
First they detect it, then they crave it. This is how it starts.
Hit me like a gamma ray
Standing in a hurricane
And I’m pulling out thornsHulktaters
Hulk mash!
