Lac bug shell is edible, we have been eating it for years. We cover fruits in lac, and add it to candy (confectioner's glaze). But is it kosher? I have never heard that candies which have confectioners glaze on it have not been declaired as not kosher. Some insects are kosher, even some of the locusts are kosher.

What is non-kosher about sprint gum?

Sprint gum may contain some non- kosher ingredients like gelatin or food coloring (that comes from insects or pigs). But even if they don't, if they don't pay to be supervised by Rabbis that make sure the Jewish laws are being met, they don't get the mark that says that they are kosher, and Jews cannot know if they are or not. Lastly, even if the gum does not contain any non- kosher ingredients, it can be made in a factory that also makes non- kosher things, and so it might have in it by accident those ingredients.
