The average chocolate bar has 8 insects' legs in it.

You need proof? Would I lie to you? Useless Facts
will tell you, about the eighth one down. I don't suppose they deliberatley put the insects legs into chocolate but cocoa does come from a bean so insects probably burrow into the bean & end up in the process somehow.

That's a very useful website Less. Now I know what I really need to be doing in order to lose weight, just bang my head against a brick wall at -40C.

Shouldn't be difficult, it quite often feels like I'm doing that anyway. :D

But Willow the site is known as Useless facts! If you found it useful you must be reading it wrong!

Re: No such thing as a vegetarian chocolate eater
 
Now let's get our facts straight. Is that 8 legs from two insects (cos insects only have six legs - spiders have eight but they are arachnoids), or is it 8 legs from 8 separate insects? Or any combination of the two? and how do they count the insect legs? Do Cadbury's know about this "A full glass and a half of full-cream milk and 8 insect legs in every bar"? And why only the legs? Are you sure there are no body segments? - it may be what I thought were biscuity bits in Tiffin were insect body segments .........

Re: No such thing as a vegetarian chocolate eater
 
Are the insects killed humanely? - hang on, no one really cares (not even veggies) cos most of us stamp on the little blighters when we see them anyway!!!

(Of course I'm not one of these people!!!)

Re: No such thing as a vegetarian chocolate eater
 
I dont think this would put me off chocolate, many a time a fly as gone up my nose and its been sniffed back (automatic reaction, not done on purpose), but aren't we supposed to swallow so many spiders in our sleep in a lifetime.

Oh Less........thankyou so much for helping me with my weight loss programme........now can you find something that says potato crisps are made from snot......I'll really have it cracked then!

ShortStuff 12-04-2005 20:09

Re: No such thing as a vegetarian chocolate eater
 
How many other beasties do we eat that get into other food processes - it's really better not to think about any of it - out of sight, out of mind!

Re: No such thing as a vegetarian chocolate eater
 
According to other info provided by Less all we need to do to lose weight is bash our heads against the wall at -40 degrees C. How do you fancy it?

ShortStuff 12-04-2005 20:56

Re: No such thing as a vegetarian chocolate eater
 
What happens if you bang your head against a wall and its only -38 degrees?

Biscuits?

Don't you dare say anything wrong about biscuits they are wonderful wether they are savoury or sweet.

Savoury-with cheese mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm!

Sweet- Jammy dodgers mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm!

http://www.jambutty.com/ Best place to discuss biscuits


By the way the cheese is probably covered in cheese mites & the Jam probably has lumps of wasp in them! But what the hey, they both taste good.

(Thinks to himself) Jammy dodgers with blue cheese on it. mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm! That way I'll get my daily intake of wasp, cheese mite & mould mite all in one meal!
Oh, I've just thought the biscuit, that means I'm also going to get an extra dose of flour mite as well!

Any-one coming over for coffee & biscuits?

Educational yes, but it's also the only site that you need a bucket next to your desk if you haven't got a strong stomach!
