And all I can say is - eeewwww....
Carmine, a food coloring used in yogurt, juice drinks, and who knows where else - comes from beetles. Sure, maybe bugs are good for you, deep down, but eeewww. that's just gross. Though I will say this - if we have to have artificial coloring, better it comes from a source like this then say, petroleum, where most of the artificial colors appear to come from.
Yes. A very good thing I'm looking into this now. I may never eat processed foods again - beetles and crude oil and who knows what other crap I've been swallowing without a second thought. And we ALL do this every day.
What's in your cupboard? Really? go look.
