nothing wrong with that
insects are used in lots of things as a waxing agents (i think). battenberg cake and marzipan has them in.
hmm not a big deal. and I never drink strawberry. chocolate ftw :D
yeah, insects are used in a lot of things. nothing wrong with that.
lmao there are worse things in your food than insects
Didn't know they put insects in food, but it doesn't bother me anyway :P
Doesn't bother me to be honest, they taste nice so yeah and they've been doing it for ages.
Already known.
Insects are in the majority of things.
Yeah, quite old news to me. I've been aware there were bugs in some foods for a while.

Knew this already!
It doesn't put me off.

Soo...
Never had one but this hasn't put me off and I definitely need to try one sometime.
If insects are good enough for Timon and Pumbaa they're good enough for me.
Good job I only like caramel frappucino's then :), but of course, I couldn't care less if the drink I was drinking had millions of crushed up bugs in.
Most things have insects in them, some are microscopical but still there. I don't like to think about it.

well, if we eat animals like cows & chickens, why not insects? lool
doesn't matter to me as long as it tastes good haha
This is a stupid grab by whoever wrote this at a news story. A huge part of any food that is pink or red uses cochineal bugs for dye. This probably first became a 'breaking news' thing in the nineties if I remember correctly but as the article states, it is an

ingredient that's been around for centuries.
Never go to starbucks so doesnt bother me.
i don't go in there very often so it doesn't really bother me.
it probably still wouldn't bother me if i was a regular customer anyway, haha!
Not that much of a big deal to me, I don't go to Starbucks. :P
i dont drink stuff like that anyway
water ftw yay
Insects are used in everyday life e.g Wax, Food etc
Don't worry, it ain't poisonous.
I didn't know this but it doesn't bother me too much, it's the only thing I drink from Starbucks so some insects aren't about to stop me enjoying a good strawberry frappuccino.

who cares really, not gonna stop people getting there beverages
