If I put my lunch through the Xray machine at the airport everyday will I get cancer?

I work at the airport and bring my lunch and have to put it on the Xray belt , is that bad for me?

No, it's not going to affect you. The radiation they use in the Xray machine at the airport has no half life. It won't add any radiation to your food at all. By the time your lunch comes out of the machine, it's probably germ free and actually better for you.
