The average chocolate bar in the U.S. contains at least 8 pieces of an insect.

After cacao beans are harvested, they're left on the ground to ferment for around a week. During that time adults, children, rats and other animals walk all over them......some vermin even making their nests amongs the beans.

YUK!
