Bonkers over Beetles

Have you heard the talk of Starbucks ... I don't know what to call it, dilemma?  That vegans are losing their shit over beetle parts being used for coloring their Strawberry Frappuccinos.

Say that sentence out loud and be sure to enunciate slowly over Strawberry Frappuccino.  My eyes are rolling before the Frap has even finished.  What a pretentious, snobby and annoying name.

Does shit like this not make it hard to take them seriously?  Don't we all eat like 7 pounds of disgusting things per year without knowing it?  It's not that vegans are upset over eating a bug (which, well... ya know...), what bothers me is having a mental over a bug in your uppity, over-priced and insanely indulgent beverage.  Lighten the fuck up already, get some perspective people.  Just saying.....
