People once kept radioactive water in their kitchens. ☢️ . . . Patented in 1912 and sold primarily through the 1920s and 1930s, the Radium Ore Revigator Company's ceramic crock was lined with uranium ore. Families filled its 2-gallon chamber overnight, then drank the radon-laced water as a health tonic. The contamination wasn't a defect—it was the product's selling point.
