fuck you i didn’t want to have read that
Fun fact, there is an acceptable level of bug parts allowed in food products. And the level is not zero.
Fuck man, bug parts are probably some of the healthiest things in your food.
The shit has micro plastics in it. Stuff that fucks up the kids you don’t even have yet.
Bugs are no big deal. Except they also have micro plastics in them.
The worst is not the bug, it’s where the the bug has been and what it has eaten…
Friend is an epidemiologist. Someone ran their coffee maker at their cabin after a while away. It tasted funny. Mostly because there was a BAT in it.
Did it taste like rabies?
Not sure about the taste, but they definitely got the IgG shots and therapeutic vaccine series. I’m not sure they had encountered someone that had ever had steamed bat carcass before.
I actually do have a small amount of mealworm protein every month. I was just trying to fuck with that other guy.
I’ve eaten insects willingly. I’ve had crickets, I’ve had ants, I’ve had beetle larvae. They were all fine.
What I haven’t eaten is roaches. Because roaches are fucking nasty.
Well here is a half moth that I once got in a prepackaged salad I bought once
Prepackaged leafy greens are the worst offenders for quality control issues by far
I worked in a restaurant that purchased local produce. One day a guest sent back a salad because it had a butterfly in it. That bastard had submerged in water for 30 minutes, rinsed and run 3 through a salad spinner three times, then refrigerated for about 2 hours. Yet there it was, covered in dressing and still fucking alive.
Greens are kind of a mine field. Bugs love them and lots of them are specifically designed to hide and live within them. Let’s not even get into e. Coli.
Sensitive to moisture, temperature, crushing, short shelf life, can’t really pasteurize, and most commonly eaten raw. Bugs can be gross but the most potent threat is bacteria!
Where’s the other half?
Looks like a cicada
psychic damage inflicted
Wow, I’m post-worthy. Who knew.
Not you, that’s who. Hee hee… Annie are you ok. I’m a bit sleep deprived so please excuse me.
thanks, Google
Congratulations on your living nightmare.
I lived with a buddy of mine who owned one of the first generation Keurig machines. We had problems with roaches cropping up here and there and we tried everything to get rid of them from diatomaceous earth to calling an exterminator but they always came back and we had no idea where they were coming from. We had assumed at some point that it was probably from an adjacent town home so we just dealt with them as they came and I didn’t think much of them after that. Fast forward a year or so and I’ve moved out of the place. I get talking with my buddy about the old roach problem and he tells me that he found out where they were nesting when his Keurig machine stopped working and he attempted to open it up and they came pouring out of the machine. My buddy grabbed some roach spray we had stocked up on and drenched the machine in it to kill as many of the damn things as he could. He ended up throwing that machine away. I’m glad I switched to French press and moka pots forever ago.
this needs an entomology paper
edit: hmmm https://www.thecommonscafe.com/3-simple-steps-to-keep-roaches-out-of-your-keurig-coffee-maker/
Around 40% of commercial coffee makers are infested with roaches. Garbage, sewage, and waste from humans can all be fertilized by roaches, and their intestinal parasites can spread. Look for different factors to determine if your coffee maker is infiltrated by these insects. Because coffee grounds and roaches almost look like each other, it may be difficult to identify them in your coffee maker.
Home brew forever.

Yeah even the quoted paragraph is barely coherent, each sentence is only tangentially related to the others. It’s like someone googled “cockroach coffee” and pasted in a sentence from each of the first 4 results… which is honestly probably not far from the truth.
This article keeps contradicting itself. I suspect it was written by a LLM.
I’m suddenly glad I drink tea.
Well I’m glad I French press.
la roche mocha
Honestly there’s probably ground up roaches and other bugs in the coffee anyway, no one complains about that.
But as soon as I jokingly put a cockroach in the coffee maker, all of a sudden it’s a big deal 🙄
Voyager screencap note: can tap the three dots, share as image, add the parent comment, and get a nice clean shot. Helpful if there are lots of replies you want to hide in between.
🤯And since voyager is taking many of the UX features that made Apollo on iOS so great (sharing comments or posts as images included), props to Christian Selig for his work on Apollo, and props to the voyager team and community for making what made Apollo so great for Reddit and applying that same awesomeness to Lemmy and improving on it
Well said!
Hey! It does work!
I started using voyager back when it was a web app snippet or whatever and it was called wefwef. I have to say this app is awesome, thanks for making it if anyone from the team reads this!
You’re welcome! 💙
Good looking out

I would have LOVED not to read that

At least you all were hopefully too drunk to care.
The fly included
I mean if I were stuck in a tube of alcohol and about to drown, why not right?
Oh dear god, that was not something I needed to read at 7 am.
What the fuck bro… 😵🤢🤮
When I was at school in sixth form there was a coffee vending machine in the rec room (basically only had a few chairs and a sofa plus the coffee vending machine and a microwave) an acquaintance (I hated the guy personally )of mine went and got a coffee from it and found a dead fly at the bottom of the cup. Put me off the vending machine completely and now I’m more cautious when using any machine.
I agree that roach blend coffee is also not my thing like most people here… However, I want you to search “thai roach food” and contemplate your life till now.
Beware of the images tab.
Tldr?
They have bug cuisine.
Oh oh… intentionally. That’s the least worst thing here
I had an ant problem and found them in a clump in my espresso machine a few times. That was HORRIFYING.
