This is so disgusting. I don't like knowing that this stuff is in my food...lol. Good thing my healthy eating has led me to give up most of these things.
----> Still going to eat shrimp. I love them. One of my old coworkers used to call them "ocean roaches". They're still pretty tasty to me!!! :-) I do try to buy the domestic ones though.
It didn't say if it was just the US....probably. And I am allergic to shrimp so I don't have to worry about that one. Not thrilled about the salad dressing though. Guess I will not be eating white ones.

Died laughing. Absolutely love ocean roaches. Except when they aren't cleaned correctly which I fondly call "poopy shrimp."
I'm going to miss raiding the kids' Easter baskets for the black jelly beans.... (I already only eat bread I've baked myself, make my own salad dressing and I can't afford shrimp...)
One of the perks of being vegan and eating as much fresh, whole foods as possible is avoiding all sorts of gross in your food! Surprised carmine didn't make the list.
I've been trying to transition away from canned goods, I'm buying all my chopped tomatoes and tomato soup in aseptic boxes these days, but canned refried beans are so convenient and tasty. I wish they would stop putting BPA in can liners!
The hair thing is absolutely disgusting. I have never heard of that and I thought I was fairly educated about food. I agree with ringmaster regarding gelatin. I avoid it as much as I can and it is in alot of foods. The only shrimp I ever eat is directly off the grill at a Japanese steakhouse, so that's about once a year tops My bf loves mushrooms, canned or fresh. I think I will forego mentioning the maggots to him...
ETA: If food dyes gave me ADHD, how do they think my grandmother got it from the side of a mountain in the 30's in PA? Where she ate only foods they grew? Horse pucky.

If he even licks something with Red40 he turns into a demon child. The difference is night and day. It's so bad that even HE checks things now because he hates how scattered it makes him feel. The effects of food dyes are VERY real for him.
I was a little afraid to click on the link, but relieved to know that the "only" one that applies to me is the bread one. Gross! Maybe I'll start making my own.
edit: I found some really easy tutorials for how to make your own bread! I'm excited to try them out. Kneading/punching the bread sounds like a good stress reliever too.
