I was tagged in this and figured I’d make a lil thread about food and insects and how you’ve been eating insects YOUR WHOLE LIFE! https://twitter.com/blayofficial/status/1264503977741336577

What you see coming out of the strawberries are insects known as spotted wing drosophila which are invasive flies that arrived in the US in 2018.

They lay eggs in strawberries and blueberries. Soaking them in salt water drowns them out. They are not found in every single berry!

I saw people in the comment section of that video saying, “This is why you should eat fruits sprayed with pesticides.” Or “I’m just not gonna eat fruit.”

Yeah, let’s all eat ONLY pesticide-laden fruits to avoid eating bugs and then destroy our gut’s lining from the pesticides, then increase systemic inflammation and cause numerous diseases!

In case you didn’t know, baby, you’ve BEEN eating bugs all of your life! If it’s grown in the ground and you’ve eaten it, you’ve encountered a bug or several hundred.

Your FDA allows insect fragments, insect & rodent poop, and rodent hair in your manufactured food!

The FDA allows 30 insect fragments and a sprinkle sprinkle of rodent hair in your chocolate.

They allow 1 or more rodent hairs and 30 or so insect fragments for every 100 grams of peanut butter.

Don’t even get me started on the “allowable amount” of mold on food!

You can try to avoid mold on the food you eat, but if you eat conventionally grown meat you will have a hard time avoiding mold because their animal feed can be moldy.

You WILL eat your fair share of rat poop, rat hairs, insect body parts, and mold. You cannot live in fear!

You need to make sure your stomach acid & digestive system are in tip-top shape so these things don’t make you sick.

Eating pesticide-laden foods won’t save u from this.

Oh, and PLEASE wash your fruits and vegetables in produce wash to remove pesticide residue!!
