I think that this was probably mentioned before, but It's something I have to know.....
There is a red food dye that is made from some sort of insect...... I think it's a breed of beatle (way off?) that is ground up. Anyways, I know that it is used in some juinces, and I'm sure it's in some candies. Does anyone know how to identify it on ingrediant lables?
One of my friends bought some twizlers a while back. While we were watching tv, he threw a half-eaten piece at me and told me to eat it (they never see me eat, cause they have nothing I can eat, lol). Well..... On the lable it says it has "Red food dye #40". Is this the dye made from insects? I really hope not....... it's in swedish fish candies, too, and they are one of the few chewy candies that don't use gelatin!!!!
The more you learn, the harder things get, heh heh. I just read the post about sugar. Damn. One of these days I'm gonna actually stick to a raw food diet. When I move out and buy my own food things will be easier?
