Cockroach fragments found in ground coffee

Cockroach fragments found in ground coffee: up to 10% of the package contents may consist of insects — Daily Mail

As the Daily Mail has found, packages of ground coffee may contain fragments of cockroaches and other insects. The proportion of such impurities can reach 10% of the total product volume.

Insect particles get in during the stages of coffee bean harvesting and processing. Although such impurities are considered acceptable in the food industry, for people with allergies, this can cause adverse reactions, such as irritation, breathing problems, or skin rashes.

This fact raises questions about the need for more thorough quality control and compliance with sanitary standards in the coffee production process.
