Hate to break it to you, but all food can have a certain amount of bugs, poop, hair, etc per the FDA

Well, can have. Not must have.

On that same pedantic note: they're not minimums, they're testable limits. Testable. As in, not every batch is, nor every thousand...

Also, somebody here's gonna love finding out how much of their own body mass is bacteria, parasites, and just plain dead. Not to mention that everything pasteurized still has the corpses of the "cleaned" microbes floating in it.

Life is gross. Get over it.

All food in the USA. The FDA has no jurisdiction anywhere else.

If you think food magically doesnt have any contamination with bugs etc. elsewhere I have some ocean front property in Wyoming to sell you.

Also, poop is in the air around you whenever you're in an enclosed space, per the Mythbusters

Did you know that people who develop an allergy to cockroaches find they also react to preground coffee.
