    I've known that for a while! people were freaked out that natural red food coloring was made from crushed beetles (http://www.livescience.com/36292-red-food-dye-bugs-cochineal-carmine.html), so Starbucks had to go back to using artificial colorings.
    The joy of life comes from our encounters with new experiences, and hence there is no greater joy than to have an endlessly changing horizon, for each day to have a new and different sun.

    I knew about the beetles, because my hubby told me this red soda I like probably had them in it but it turned out it was artifically dyed red....lol But yeah the Beaver thing is nasty!!! LMAO!

    oh...I love Big Red...it tastes like bubble gum. Also reminds me of the PJ user drinkingbigredinstead...I miss her (I know she changed her name/got a new account) haven't seen her for a while.

    I don't generally like cherry flavored things (when I was a kid all medicine was cherry flavored-yuck) but I love Shirley Temples...used to like cherry 7up, but now it tastes gross. image

    I love this tidbit. Just another little thing to keep in mind when people say "but it's all natural, it must be good for you".
