Some claim this is only and urban legend, but experts will tell you that it is nearly impossible to get all of the little critters out of the Cocoa Bean vats before the beans are ground into powder.

Worse still, this milling is often done in the third world where the beans are grown and harvested. We all know what the standard of hygiene is in many of these locations.

So by the time the powder arrives in Hersey, PA, the cockroach content is already a homogenized part of the product.

Not to worry; Bugs are one of the most under-utilized foodstuffs in the world (by humans anyway). I really don’t see much a difference between eating bugs and lobsters. If the bug is really big it is OK to eat?

It’s not that these things are bad, but that you’d never think of eating these things on their own…

I would think one concern not addressed (not that I care, but just being the devil’s advocate) is how a vegetarian or vegan would feel about not being told their all natural juice drink may contain an animal byproduct…

And, as products would go down, it’s very possible that companies would go out of business and people would lose their jobs. This is generally thought to be bad, in my own opinion.
