The average chocolate bar has 8 insects' legs in it.

You need proof? Would I lie to you? Useless Facts
will tell you, about the eighth one down. I don't suppose they deliberatley put the insects legs into chocolate but cocoa does come from a bean so insects probably burrow into the bean & end up in the process somehow.

oh yeah i never thought of that

That's a very useful website Less. Now I know what I really need to be doing in order to lose weight, just bang my head against a brick wall at -40C.

Shouldn't be difficult, it quite often feels like I'm doing that anyway.

But Willow the site is known as Useless facts! If you found it useful you must be reading it wrong!

Now let's get our facts straight. Is that 8 legs from two insects (cos insects only have six legs - spiders have eight but they are arachnoids), or is it 8 legs from 8 separate insects? Or any combination of the two? and how do they count the insect legs? Do Cadbury's know about this "A full glass and a half of full-cream milk and 8 insect legs in every bar"? And why only the legs? Are you sure there are no body segments? - it may be what I thought were biscuity bits in Tiffin were insect body segments .........

ShortStuff · 12-04-2005, 17:44

Are the insects killed humanely? - hang on, no one really cares (not even veggies) cos most of us stamp on the little blighters when we see them anyway!!!

(Of course I'm not one of these people!!!)
