Krambo Posted February 26, 2009 Report Share Posted February 26, 2009 (edited) Dan, My undergrad area of study was Food Science...that list is a bit short. I always like to tell people about peanut butter allowed quality. ALL peanut butter has insect parts and rodent hairs in it, its a fact and cannot be avoided. (I know you had a PB&J yesterday for lunch ). Per 100 grams of peanut butter, the allowed limit (AQL) of insect parts is 30 per 100 grams Per 100 grams of peanut butter, the allowed limit (AQL) of rodent hairs is 1-2 full hairs per 100 grams. Per 100 grams of peanut butter, the allowed limit (AQL) of insoluable organics is 25mg per 100 grams. This is mostly contamination from harvest (dirt) however rodent feces is perfectly acceptable to fall in this category. Another one of my favorites is mushrooms: Insects (AOAC 967.24) Average of over 20 or more maggots of any size per 100 grams of drained mushrooms and proportionate liquid or 15 grams of dried mushrooms OR Average of 5 or more maggots 2 mm or longer per 100 grams of drained mushrooms and proportionate liquid or 15 grams of dried mushrooms Mites (AOAC 967.24) Average of 75 mites per 100 grams drained mushrooms and proportionate liquid or 15 grams of dried mushrooms Decomposition (MPM-V100) Average of more than 10% of mushrooms are decomposed DEFECT SOURCE: Insects - preharvest insect infestation, Mites - preharvest and/or post harvest infestation, Decomposition - preharvest infection If anyone wants some good reading material, here is the link to the US FDA list of what is acceptable levels of "defects" in the food you eat: FDA Acceptable Defect Levels Alot of people assume that a single bug part is unacceptable however the reality of the situation is that it is impossible to process food without these "asthetic" defects.
