We had a cappuccino machine, I thought my wife kept cleaning the crispy dried milk off the steamer spout, she thought I was doing it. A year later, after coffee every morning, we found out the cat was licking it off when we were at work.

    Cockroaches are notorious coffee problems. A study found that many people who drank instant and pre ground coffee were allergic to coffee actually were allergic to the cockroaches ground up in it.

        Yup. I’ve seen this. Sticking to my guns on this one, mainly because I always assumed it was various bugs. It’s just a given that bugs are in our food and people’s allergies to bug poop is very common.

        As a government biologist, i was kind of surprised that snoops was mainly concerned about finding evidence that specifically cockroaches exist in the for No we wouldn’t identify that. No one would cus we wouldn’t really look into what exact bug or foreign matter exists, we just care that it stays at low levels. A large part of violations we identify have to come from self reporting too.

        It’s not like it’s a big deal anyway. There are bugs in our food, it happens.That’s just life lol.

          If people think bugs are the worst thing they’re going to find in food, they should probably just close the internet, never look anything up and live in bliss.

          Their focus didn’t surprise me, the title was literally about roaches in coffee. It anything it surprised me how in depth they went about other insects being in coffee and not just roaches.
