    Supplements Threatened in New GRAS Bill
    Another ill-conceived effort to reform the Generally Recognized as Safe (GRAS) pathway directly threatens access to countless safe supplements and natural products. Action Alert! THE TOPLINE Rep. Pallone’s GRAS reform bill would eliminate the self-affirmed GRAS pathway and replace it with an FDA pre-approval system—raising costs, reducing competition, and threatening access to many safe, natural

  • While you’re still debating if insects will be part of our future diet, you’ve already been eating crickets and larvae for over a year — disguised as your favorite foods.

    Corporate translation: “We add insect flour to products, but call it ‘alternative protein’.”

    Company #1: Barilla (pasta)
    Since 2023, the premium pasta line contains “plant protein” — in reality, it’s cricket flour from farms in Thailand.
    Official reason: “To increase nutritional value.”
    Real reason: insects cost 3x less than meat with the same protein content.

    Company #2: Beyond Meat (plant-based meat)
    “100% plant-based” patties contain protein from mealworm larvae. Listed as “pea protein isolate” — a technical loophole.
    Larvae are raised on pea waste, processed into protein concentrate. Technically still a plant-based product.

    Company #3: Red Bull (energy drinks)
    The red dye carminic acid comes from crushed female cochineal insects — about 70,000 bugs per liter.
    It’s been used for 150 years, but now they also add chitin from shells “to improve taste,” listed as “natural flavors.”

    Company #4: Ferrero (Nutella chocolate spread)
    Since 2024, Nutella contains black soldier fly larvae flour to reduce cocoa costs. Masked as “mineral enrichment.”
    Insects are high in iron and zinc — technically true, but you’re buying chocolate and getting bugs.

    Company #5: PepsiCo (Lay’s chips)
    “Natural flavoring” in some chips is actually extracts from grasshoppers and locusts. Brings umami taste without MSG.
    Produced in Mexico, where locusts are a traditional food — but that’s never mentioned in local marketing.

    How to spot it
    Look for: “hydrolyzed protein,” “natural flavors,” “alternative proteins,” “mineral complexes.”
    Avoid products with “new formula” labels without explanation.

    Why they hide it
    Goal — to slowly normalize insect consumption through unnoticed integration.

    Read ingredient lists. Buy from small producers. Avoid “innovative” products from global brands.

  • My principles for preparing a meal:

    1. Meal should have nutritional balance.
    2. Meal should be made of natural or organic ingredients that have been cleaned thoroughly and prepared properly
    3. Meal should be tasty, have great flavor (that always rules-out cauliflower, eggplant, zucchini, and kale).
    4. Meal should look attractive and enticing - a meal people are anxious to enjoy.
    5. Portion Control. I don't care about this; people should manage this with their forks.
    6. Ease of consumption. If food is problematic, difficult to eat, then don't make it that way!
    7. It should be something I would enjoy eating!
    8. Minimize the number of pots, pans, and bowls needed to prepare the meal - cleanup can be exhausting.
    9. Don't cook when drunk.

  • It is very difficult to get sound nutritional advice these days, especially from those you would expect to have the most trustworthy guidance: doctors. Don't fall for advertising or endorsements - eat foods grown and raised the way God created and intended them to be. There's a reason they are the way they are:
