Chocolate is a weakness of young and old. Unfortunately for all lovers of sweet temptation, however, shocking news appeared.
According to American scientists, chocolate contains particles of cockroaches. Moreover, according to experts, the allergy of people who think they have an intolerance to the delicacy is due to this fact, Western publications report.
Consumers usually think they are allergic to the cocoa beans in chocolate or any of its official ingredients. Very few of them suggest that they may be intolerant to cockroach particles in the chocolate product, US experts explain.
Cockroach allergy has been talked about in the last century. In 1959, the first tests for the unusual condition began. It later became clear that humans could be relieved of this sensitivity with injections containing small doses of cockroach material.
After conducting a study, the researchers found that various irritations in humans were caused by cockroach particles found in the chocolate batches they analyzed. The results of the study show that in 100 grams of chocolate there are about 60 particles of terrible insects.
Fortunately, this amount does not affect people who do not have allergies. For others, however, eating the sweet temptation becomes a serious obstacle, mainly due to the excrement of cockroaches, to which there is intolerance.
Is there no way to avoid this? Unfortunately, experts are adamant that cocoa beans could hardly be protected from insects, as bugs attack them on farms.
According to experts, the prevention of their invasion is possible if pesticides are used.
However, this is much more dangerous to human health than the ingestion of cockroach particles, scientists explain.
According to allergists, this news should not bother us so much. They also explain that chocolate is not the only food that contains bugs. Cockroach particles are also found in a number of other products, including peanut butter, pasta, cheese, wheat, fruits, vegetables and popcorn.
