Vegans beware! Some gummy candy has a certain gelatin that is manufactured from hoofs of animals. Also, some candy was dyed using dye that was produced using animal products. Actually the more I read about this the more I don't ever want to eat candy again, vegan or not. Ew.
Another thing... many not be meat technically but it's close. A company called Hotlix is the original manufacturers of the lollipops with real bugs inside. REAL. They have a plethora of options. You can order insects such as: worms, crickets, larvae, scorpions (umm, is that safe?), ants, and butterflies (aw, that's so sad). And for the 21 some of their lollipops contain tequila- appropriate has that's probably the only ways anyone will eat them.
Anywho, hop these were some fun facts about creepy candy. Have a fun and safe Halloween yall!
These facts were interesting to say the least. Haha. I never really though about candy having animal products in it and the only thing that comes to mind would have to be some sort of jello...but then again I don't really relate jello to candy. Anyways I do like fun facts like this so thanks for that. I just realized that I didn't really have any candy on Halloween...how sad.
ReplyDeleteOne would be surprised to know that candy's not just sugar. My friend is a vegetarian and doesn't eat skittles or starburst because the candy contains gelatin. And, wow I definitely have to check this Hotlix company out. I've always found insect candies pretty cute..but only if they're fake and made of sugar! Real insects is pretty disgusting and it's hard to imagine people would actually order for eating.
