I’m so confused. Almost every candy store where I grew up sold cricket and scorpion lollipops. They sell them at the airport in my city too. Why are people in suddenly going crazy about shit that’s been happening for decades? And it’s not even the same country that’s changing the laws?

Not only that the hasn’t the fda approved a certain about of bugs per batch or whatever in food for decades? Aren’t like M&Ms shells made with bug shells or something? Don’t worry, I’m about to double check myself, I’m just so bewildered.

Okay so first Google search HuffPost (ugh): Example- Manufacturers can’t allow more than 255 big parts in 255 grams of pasta.

The FDA website has a whole list. Sadly, I’m on mobile and used the computer to look up this info. But if you type in “FDA bugs per batch” their website should come up in the search results.
