;DThe maggot allowance
Food companies don’t want you to know that your food can legally contain maggots. Sure, the FDA limits the amount of these and other appetite killers in your food, that but limit isn’t zero. The following allowances aren’t harmful to your health—but we can’t promise that the thought of them won’t make you sick.
Food Can contain up to...
Canned Pineapples 20 percent positive mold tests
Canned Tomatoes 5 fly eggs and 1 maggot per 500 grams
Frozen Broccoli 60 mites per 100 grams
Ground Cinnamon 400 insect fragments and 11 rodent hairs per 50 grams
Peanut Butter 30 insect fragments and 1 rodent hair per 100 grams
Popcorn 20 gnawed grains or 2 rodent hairs per pound
Potato Chips 6 percent rotten chips
