Just trying to stir up more trouble....:whome:

This has interested me since I ran across a "story problem" about it in a math class.

The Average Chocolate Bar Contains How Many Insect Parts?

...The problem is there’s really nothing you can do about it. Dr. Morton Teich is an allergist who consults with the FDA, he says, “to avoid [insects in your food], you probably would have to stop eating completely.”

Probably good for the immune system if started early. Imagine how bad it would be without an FDA.

:chocolate:

 

Well, I'm not going to let it bother me. I love my chocolate to much to give it up for a few insect parts. Actually, I will consider it a little bonus of added protein. Now, doesn't everyone feel better about eating their chocolate?

The ground up roaches turns my stomach. Now to forget I ever read this...may take awhile.:waiting:
 
I think it's pretty much unavoidable. They are everywhere and unless they use sterile technique, they're around packaging. It brings to mind, one time I bought one of those glazed honey buns out of the vending machine at work. I sat down with my co-workers at break time and a couple bites into eating it, there was a fully intact yellow jacket under the glaze. I threw it down onto the table, a little horrified to think my next bite I would have eaten it! Yuk!
