Best Answer

Red dyes are often made of insects. Carmine red, cochineal red, or natural red 4 are all made from insects, usually powdered beetles.

Vegetarian red dye uses other resources.

Use caution when selecting vegetarian dyes. Some vegetarian dyes, such as Red 2 and Red 40 are petroleum or coal based, and not considered all that healthy by some groups.

Look for dyes that are vegetable or fruit based. Beets and pomegranates are sometimes used to make healthier vegetarian versions of these dyes.
