Review: Sigh. They are also in Hershey's Good and Plenty candies too. I just bought three pounds that went on sale after Halloween and already went through one of them. I now have about 2 million of those beetles crawling around in my insides now

Review: I am so happy that you told us about this bug thing!! I DO care what i eat and what goes in my mouth and i sure dont want to be eating bugs!!! I know that 8 spiders go into our mouth every year or however long it is, but that is just how life is but if you can control yourself from eating bugs then why eat them?? Inless you like them!! I personally am not going to eat strawberry yogurt anymore!Because i controll what i eat and i am sure not going to be eating bugs if i have something to say about it!!

Review: A great doubt: Like those people that have given their opinion, we don?t know either about what we eat every day. We don?t know the chemical about processed foods and we don?t have information how they are cooked. Maybe we are being poisoned little by little and eating garbage too without knowing it. How could we have the answers for our doubts?

Review: Our first impression was of bad feelings and a disgusting reaction, but we researched more about the subject and we discovered that they are right about that. The natural colorings donīt cause illness, but synthetic colorings can cause cancer. We believe that people must search more information about that before talk about it

Nickname: what's the big deal
Review: Don't we eat like 8 spiders a year while we sleep? Imagine how many other bugs accidentally fall into the abyss of your open snoring mouth during those 8 hours a night? I'd be more worried about that frankly. Although my mom always said it was just extra protein when we ate bugs. Besides, at least it's natural.

Review: As one of the few who actually know where carmine comes from, may I ask why it is that so many of us expect to be protected from others by the government? This is the same government that many want to leave us alone. I am afraid we can't have it both ways. Yes, food additives can be nasty but would bread be quite as good without the use and death of the tiny organisms that make up yeast? Yes, reading labels can be tricky but being an informed person is the only real way to protect yourself. Why should anyone else look out for you if you're not going to take care of yourself?

Review: continued from my other comment: However, I appreciate articles like this because ( even if you don't believe them )they do light up that spark in people who really care what they eat. Those are the people who will go out and do something. They'll change they way they eat because they CARE. Obviously, companies don't give a damn about what you eat. Its up to you to ( care about what you eat).....

Review: What really pisses me off is the fact that people keep referring to ?what God told us to eat? and how ?God told us to treat our bodies?. Seriously people. Do you really need some guy/girl ( may feminism prevail ) telling you what to do and what not to do? You are in control of your body. You eat what you want to eat. As for the ?bugs?, yes, it sounds gross, but you eat yeast, don?t you? Companies will do whatever it takes to make you eat their product. They, like everyone else, are trying to make money. They?re not going to list every single ingredient they use because THEY DON?T WANT YOU TO KNOW! Is it really that hard to understand? If you want change, if you think you have a right to know what you are eating, go out there and do whatever it takes to get what you want, instead of sitting here and complaining. I?m sick of hearing about people who are too lazy to get off their butts and do something about what they have a problem with. YEESH.

Review: My students were amazed at what the government allowed companies to put into their food. They are interested and confused as to why the public is not receiving better protection from food companies.

Review: I was reading the morning comics and decided it was time for a healthy morning breakfast instead of the regular high sugar cereal. I grab a Strawberry Yoplait Yogurt out of the frige. I started to eat it, then I saw this one comic concerning how they put beetles in some yogurts, sure enough, I looked it up, found this article and it was the exact yogurt I had just been eating. I feel sick.
