This is fascinating, in a train wreck sort of way.

I didn't know about coal tar, but I knew carmine was crushed beetles.

I didn't know about this to be honest, but then again I rarely eat anything unnaturally blue with the exception of M&Ms. And they're worth it.

Mm. Don't eat much that is artificially coloured, anyway.

...this was not the trick question I thought it would be.

I think the "we don't know exactly what's in coal tar" bit was the scariest.

Y'know, aside from the initial bad reaction, I don't really care what it "is" - I just ate a lump off a pig's rear end this morning. I want to know that what it is, the stuff it's made of, is stuff that isn't going to hurt me. If we knew there was nothing in coal tar that wasn't in ham, I'd be fine with it.

Oh, hey, that reminds me: did you ever hear that thing somebody said, where they said that all the "such-and-such is an abomination" bits in the Old Testament should be read as "we in the Jewish community consider such-and-such to be utterly gross"? Whoever it was claimed that something like that was the more accurate translation.

I'll be sure to link it if I see it again. It might have been just someone being idiosyncratic, of course.
