Quaker Oats did what?

I stumbled upon someone saying that the Quaker Oats Company once did an experiment on children by giving them radioactive substances and see what happens. I then checked Wikipedia then the sources of said claim.

Well, does that make Quaker Oats Company a real-life Aperture science? Do they have an underground Enrichment Center under the oat fields? Joke aside, it's kind of scary. Good thing we stopped buying their products years ago? I hope they've stopped doing those kind of "for science!" stuff.

Microbial Art

Exactly what the title says.

It's art in a petri dish. I wish my school has a program or at least an atelier for bioart.
