I have a lot of bad news for you. Nothing is bugging free.
Bug parts are found any many seasons. I mean many! I hope you don't eat chocolate!

Not to mention rodent bones and hair. There is an acceptable amount in our food.

I don't like it. But I cant blend my own spices.

I remember seeing something years ago about tilapia being a genetically and masproduced fish like product , that isn’t actually a fish .

no matter what it is . I have never tried it

Tilapia is like Soilent Green! IT'S PEOPLE!....IT'S PEOPLE!

Wait. What do you mean by “chocolate”?!?!

I know the FDA allows a certain number of rat hairs in peanut butter, but I didn’t know there were bugs in chocolate!

Chocolate comes from the coco bean. All kinds of worms and such eating them.

To everyone grossed out by the thought of fish poop in the macro. I present to you the manure slinger. Everything you eat has gross stuff on it/in it but that's good for your microbiota.

If you like pistachios... if you open them up then open up each pistachio... they have whole little worms inside them fairly often.

if you don't want to eat bugs/poop/hair... you basically have to give up eating.

Coffee, black pepper, fruit, peanut butter, chocolate, jelly, raisins, tomato juice/sauce/paste, nuts, fruit juice, nectar, spaghetti/pasta, cereals, pretty much any canned goods or processed (such as grains/flour/bread/crackers/cookies... etc) asparagus, frozen/canned spinach, spices, snacks, tea.... on and on.

I guess you probably end up eating less if you give up everything canned and processed but that means giving up things like flour and canned stuff like tomato sauce which is often used in cooking and baking.

I'm pretty sure black pepper is pure poop grains from a pepper eating beetle and the food industry simply has a twisted sense of humor.

Doesn't Red Sea Salt (not Coral Pro), which I use, mostly originate from the wild?

Commercial tilapia are one of a couple of hybrids. Not genetically modified. It is also quite tasty, and one of the few fish that's going to survive into our future, so best to acquire a taste for it.

CIR1051/FA012: Culture of Hybrid Tilapia: A Reference Profile

This document is about Tilapia, which is a generic term used to designate a group of commercially important food fish belonging to the family Cichlidae; the expression is derived from the African native Bechuana word "thiape," meaning fish. Cichlids are classified in the large order Perciformes...

As for the macroalgae: considering the number of zoonotic diseases we can catch from fish -- most of which are probably in our aquariums right now, given the trans-global-dying-fish-stew-pot that is the commercial aquatics chain of custody -- eating it would be a remarkably foolish thing to do.

I’m with you there, don’t we use bat poop or cow poop to fertilize those veggies?

Hmm it gets more yucky if I have the guts to look into a rumor I heard. I'd rather not and like to think its a rumor.

Well human corpses can now be used as fertilizer in some states. I guess a law was passed.
