HUH?

I am having one of those nights where you can't sleep so you just do random stuff and look at what I found! I think I would like to work at the FDA place so I can monitor what really goes into our food...so the next time you eat that yummy yogurt you might be eating a spider??? YIKES. And what about hot dogs? They already put the "excess" parts of animals in there, did they really have to add spiders to the mix? Or how about this...baby food fruits and veggies.
Anyways, just read below!



You eat eight spiders every year in your sleep. True?

Nope, says MythBusters. There's no evidence that spiders secretly crawl into our mouths while we're sleeping. Even if you were lying perfectly still, your breathing would scare a spider off, so it's unlikely to hang out around your mouth. Alas, the bad news: You probably consume more spiders when you are awake -- in your food. Here's why: The Food and Drug Administration guidelines allow a certain level of whole insects or parts in some food products, such as those containing fruits or vegetables. Yum.
