What is "carmine"?
its a deep red colour :]
[link removed]
its a crushed scale insect… yuck i went on wiki answers! They put it in a sweet called Runts..
It’s a bright red color that comes from an acid in dead beetles. It can be used as coloring in products like candies, juice, beauty products, etc.
why do they use it?
For food coloring. People tend to buy foods that look good. The redder the apple, for example, the better it looks to eat. It’s kind of unsettling if you ask me, haha.
Carmines also a character in Gears of War :)
