Ze childzen veel eat ze bugz>The cochineal is a scale insect in the suborder Sternorrhyncha, from which the natural dye carmine is derived .... this insect lives on cacti in the genus Opuntia, feeding on plant moisture and nutrients. The insects are found on the pads of prickly pear cacti, collected by brushing them off the plants, and dried.>The insect produces carminic acid that deters predation by other insects. Carminic acid, typically 17–24% of dried insects' weight, can be extracted from the body and eggs, then mixed with aluminium or calcium salts to make carmine dye, also known as cochineal. Today, carmine is primarily used as a colorant in food and in lipstick (E120 or Natural Red 4). en/./wikipedia\.\{org}/wiki/Cochinealwww<.>walmart[.]{com}/ip/NERDS-Gummy-Clusters-Candy-Rainbow-Crunchy-and-Gummy-8-oz/853921436?classType=REGULAR&athbdg=L1200
>>519095573>natural dyethey don't use natural dyes. they use synthetic dyes.
>>519096070Shalom bot
>>519096108Sorry you're retarded
>>519096152Go to the Walmart link. Tell me whether or not it lists "Carmine Color" in the ingredients section.
>>519096476You don't understand what's going on here. He's already called you retarded, making him the winner of the argument. Any more replies out of you only confirms his bias. The only thing left to do is to slink back to your basement in shame. It's over.
>>519096609Joke's on you, I'm in my basement right now.
Wow you just figure this out? Wait till you learn how the bread is made
>nerdsjust ate a whole pack of these things yesterday. It was fucking delicious and now my teeth hurt
>>519095573wood lacquer is also made of bugsi'm all for it to be honest. fuck bugs. remind them of their place.
>>519099754abbo bug eater hands typed this
>>519095573you eat this shit since the 1960s
>>519099816>>519099754>>519095573I love smashing my face into cochineal. let me explain. I love tiger striped arctic birch. I have it on my mosin, my konepistooli, and my double barrel. it is stained with this wonderful red dye. I smash my cheek into the stock. I love it. I can't get enough of it. I want to buy old air dried arctic birch and retrofit american rifles. It's even better than tiger/flame maple.
>>519099816what's the matter mate scared of a little bush tucka? >>519099963fuck yes cunt
>>519099754They will crawl in your walls and keep you up at night. Learn to respect Nature or she will hurt you.
>>519095573> insect produces carminic acid>producesBees produce honey too. So what? Are you implying that the insects are eaten? I suppose that you are and it goes to show that a lot of people simply cannot understand what they read.
>>519099754do you eat wood lacquer
>>519100664Shellac is a common food colouring. Yes.
>>519100664when the mood strikes
>>519100737What do you eat it in
>>519100770Candy. It's in a lot of things. It's been used for a very long time.
>>519100770Ever had candy with a shiny, slightly crunchy coating?https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Resinous_glaze
>>519100770
>>519100935>>519100937>>519101049I don't eat that.
>>519100737>shellac comes mostly from indiait's real... jeet bugs in food, can't even make this shit upthey will never stop, they must be stopped
>>519101107do you even gun?are you american?>>519100664>>519101075the japanese make a lacquer from a tree that causes the skin of whites to blister.it is better to use animals as a dye over plantsless chance of toxinsI own such a rifle. I don't mash my face into that one. I let it sit on the wall and look pretty.
>>519101075You asked me what I eat. I eat shellac and that's about all there is to it. I suppose that you ought to start checking your food ingredients more carefully because it's in more places than you might think.
>>519101107If I worry too much about what I eat then I might as well start asking for kosher or halal certification. I'll just Chad ahead and eat whatever I want. I had blue cheese with my dinner tonight. It is literally hunks of mold. Casu martzu is where I draw the line. I would not eat that shit on a bet.
>>519095573Am I supposed to be outraged over this? It's a dye made naturally. And what you posted is fairly common knowledge. Take your artificial red dyes and shove them up your ass, kike.
>>519101627according to this anon>>519101277 yes, he wants me to gun jeet bug trees
>>519101544I make a point to check the halal beef when I'm buying whole ribeye or strip loin to cut for steaks because it's ungraded and sometimes has way better marbling then choice.
Im retarded. Are you telling me there is bugs in my Nerds™? I already know theres is bugs in my Reeses™(OU-P) Peanut Butter Cups™
>>519101544honestly they're just little bugs that eat fruit to gain that color, prickly pear is pretty good
>>519101683>>519101627the shellac is used on finnish and russian rifles. you should own several. what else will still cycle in the fimbulwinter? I should get a lahti l-35 and an svt 40 to complete it. not the swedish one, original finnish.
>>519095573most manufacturers switched to synthetic or other alternatives.you're about 15 years late moron.
>>519101707We don't have any of that labelling on our meat here... yet. When I was working in a fish plant we had a grade of fish without bovine plasma and a rabbi still had to come in to make that shit kosher. I suppose that a lot of people do not really know what sort of stuff they might find in their "seafood".
>>519101107apparently the lac is separated from the bug carapaces with various chemicals and alcohol. But who knows how thorough it is. Surely an appendage or two makes it into the final product.
>>519101544>Chickenz eatz ze bugz>Youz eatz ze chickenz
>>519102397There are an acceptable number of insect parts for chocolate and coffee. I'm not going to tell you because it will upset the kids.Captcha:RANK8
They look like gummies
>>519095573Nerds are so good I will gladly eat those bugs
>>519095573Want to know where your delicious chicky nuggies come from? Newborn male chicks are thrown into a grinder. A pink slime that looks like soft serve ice cream comes out. Feathers, eyes, brain, organs, beak, bones, talons, it's all in there. Then then they "wash" it with ammonia and form in into shapes and put the breading on it.
>>519095573you're right. i've been in the military for 15 years now, and i've always been told that the only way to defeat an opponent is to feed them
>>519099754Technically, it's made of those bugs' secretions. But the don't bother to tell the bugs to go away before they scrape it up.
>>519100645The insects are ground up to get that carminic acid. Bees aren't ground up to get honey out of them. Retard.
>>519100664If you eat candy or cereal, you do.
>>519104506Go fuck your hat thread necromancer.The insects are not meant to be eaten, the technique is irrelevant.
>>519104633Mexicans don't mean to eat feces when they make menudo out of intestines, either. But that stuff smells exactly like warm shit.
>>519104730Menudo is a boy bad. I know. I saw them on ABC during my cartoons. They might have looked like intestines but I cannot vouch for the smell.
>>519095573>bugs mixed with aluminumbased
