Brace Yourself - You're Eating Bugs!

by Melissa Brunner

If you watch "Survivor," you know most seasons feature a disgusting "food" item challenge, where contestants eat all sorts of strange creatures and concoctions. Turns out, you don't need to be on the island to be consuming things you might rather not know are in your food!

This article on Yahoo! Health today caught my eye - and opened my eyes! It highlights the bugs you're likely eating in some common food items. Aphids, mites, even maggots are allowed in certain numbers in common foods, usually fruits and veggies.

Take a look at the article and let me know what you think!
