Mel,

Quote:

CHERRIES
Brined and Maraschino Insect filth
(MPM-V48) Average of 5% or more pieces are rejects due to maggots

DEFECT SOURCE: Pre-harvest insect infestation
SIGNIFICANCE: Aesthetic

Fresh, Canned, or Frozen Rot
(MPM-V48) Average of 7% or more pieces are rejects due to rot
Insect filth
(MPM-V48) Average of 4% or more pieces are rejects due to insects other than maggots

DEFECT SOURCE: Insect reject - Pre-harvest and/or post harvest insect infestation, Rot reject - pre-harvest mold infection
SIGNIFICANCE: Aesthetic

These are the levels the Gov. allows before action is required.

My favorite:

Quote:

HOPS Insects
(AOAC 967.23) Average of more than 2,500 aphids per 10 grams

I'd think 2500 aphids would weigh 10 grams. Must be what makes beer so good.

If you were allowed to look around the kitchens of most of the places you go out to eat at, you would never visit them again.

Even most of the nicer restaurants have nasty looking kitchens.

Chocolate may contain less maggots and other critters, but the manufacturing process is sometimes less than desirable:

Just today I had to have an ex-ray of my mid section.
The ladie came out and asked if I had any thing metel on. I told her no.

She told me that a heart shaped metal Item was showing up on the ex-ray.

The doc let me look at it sure enough right there in the Intetine is a little heart shape thing.

SO now I am left to wonder who lost what in what food? Cuz how the hell else would it get there? :P

Well jus think.......when the suprise comes out you will have a new necklace.....buy a chain and tell everyone the story. Heh heh heh........blech ! So wonder if it is metal and if so if you'd tried to fly what they would of done if the metal detector kept goin off and there was nothin to show for it ? That'd be real interesting and wonder how often that happens. I swollowed a tooth not long ago. Bit into some candy and got into this huge crunchy chunk not realizeing the almost totally filled tooth let go. Didn't feel or hear it snap or crack like you usually do. And then I had the gull to chew it up till I realized it was way too hard and swollowed it cuz I was too busy to spit it out. $ 700.00 later with a new crown Pam

A friend works in a flour mill and she said they are allowed so many bug parts per million. And she said McDonalds and Dolly Madison were there biggiest buyers of the worst stuff that was over the limits. Gag !! :P

PS: Man the scones look AWESOME !! Am goin to make them for the holidays !!!!!!!!

Don't know about you but I like food with so many preservatives that nothing significant can live in the mess. http://www.netsync.net/users/charlies/gifs/share bun.gif

It also give my immune system a healthy workout. At my age, I do anything to keep fit. http://www.netsync.net/users/charlies/gifs/drunk.gif
