Ya know, I have to hang my head with a lot of the “Really, America?” shit. Yes, my home is a bit weird.
But it’s not like we got aaaaaaall the weird.
It is fukin bizzare to let insects crawl on your food and then desire or use said food in any way other than feeding pigs.

Most of those things get baked out because of the high temperatures.
These ones after baking, not so much.

To be perfectly honest, local isn’t any better as far as pests. There’s never been a rat free grain or corn silo. Presumably you could get pretty close to clean if you refined the sugar out of beets, But they grow in the ground in the dirt with all the insects and pests…

Cooking is good. I wash my vegetables. And my meat for that matter, although that’s strangely not recommended.

It’s nearly impossible to keep wasps and flies out of your store.
dbtng@eviltoast.org 1 day ago
This is not true. We have stores with flies. I don’t go to those stores.
As for wasps, I understand there are legal restrictions here. Boy, that is pretty strange. For wasps. Wasps do just fine without our help.Vinstaal0@feddit.nl 1 day ago
Tell me your secret on how to get these things out of a building, it’s already freaking hard in a house where the door doesn’t open every 5 minutes.
Flies or wasps are also a completely different thing. The worst/only thing that can happen with wasps is that one doesn’t move away when you take a bite and stings you.

In the US, many stores with food (grocery stores, restaurants) have what’s essentially a pressurized airlock. You go through one set of doors, above which is an outward-facing blower, into a small room with higher pressure, then through another set of doors.

Well, that’s the nice thing about civilization. We get to divide up labor into specialties. I don’t own a bakery, so I don’t have the secret you’ve inquired about. I get to choose which places I shop, and I make sure its places without bugs. If I have a secret at all, its the power of the purse.

My kids screamed his head off two days ago. There’s ants in the house. I’m like yeah whatever. I go to check it out. There were thousands of ants in the house. They came in through a little spot near the garage went all the way down one wall along another wall straight through the kitchen under the fridge to a single crunchy snack thing that fell onto the floor.
I’m not too worried about this fly or two or an and or two and I leave spiders alone If they’ve picked a nice quiet corner. But I can’t have thousands of ants in my kitchen.
