John Hopkins in News Video on Insects in Food

John D. Hopkins, an assistant professor and extension entomologist at the University of Arkansas, is featured in this news video on insect parts in everyday foods. The Food and Drug Administration regulates the ingredients of the nation's favorite foods, and they say certain levels of insect parts are acceptable.

"Aphids are small, soft bodied insects that, for the most part, if ingested would just add a little protein to your diet. It's nothing to be concerned or worried about. It's not a health hazard," Hopkins said.
