      I hate spiders, and I belive that this is true of a sort. There is estimated to be one insect leg in every 100 bars of chocolate too. I don’t know where these stats come from, nor do I know how accurate they are. If they are to be believed then I’m going to tape my mouth shut at night and give up chocolate.

      Probably not eight spiders, but you do probably eat some parts of some bugs in your food. If you look at cheese under the a microscope its crawling with cheese mites – these give strong cheese their flavour – UGH

      I think it’s more true for people that sleep with their mouths open. Do you know anyone that woke up as they were eating one? Because surely that would happen if it were true…
