Eating edible insects is natural even though the trend has not developed in many western cultures. Many of us eat insects daily without our knowledge. Insects have entered the industrialized food manufacturing process in various forms such as dyes.

"E120" or carmine on product ingredient labels is a substance obtained from the cochineal insect, it is used to dye various confectioneries, pastry and jams, syrups, yogurts, drinks and meats. Cochineal also acts as a dye for pharmaceutical products such as drugs and dietary supplements. Experts say that by consuming these colored products, we eat more than 500g of edible insects each year. This figure is considerable for people who think they do not eat insects.

It is almost impossible to guarantee the absence of insect fragments in industrial preparations such as flour, cereals, legumes, pulses, and in vegetable protein substances. Conscious of this fact, health authorities impose regulations by setting up food codes where, for example, an industrial food product must not contain more than 0.1% insect fragments per mass of sample.
