Was red #3 the one derived from a bug?
Nope. That’s Natural Red 4, aka carmine aka cochineal. And if you’re squicked out about bugs in your food then boy oh boy have I got bad news for you lol. Anyway bugs ass food is fine, personally, as long as they’re ground up into dust first.
The difference between eating a few by accident and having them ground up for coloring matters to vegetarians.
