Why do you have to check for bugs in kosher food'?
Insects and bugs aren't kosher because they are animals. Not all animals are kosher. The only kosher insect I can think of is a certain type of Egyptian locust.

It is recommended to consult with a rabbi or follow specific guidelines for ensuring the kosher status of plants.
Is the lac beetle kosher?
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. See 613 commandments for more information.

Are mushrooms kosher?
Mushrooms are a tricky one - while they're not considered to be animals (despite scientific evidence that they share much more in common with animals than they do with plants), they're notoriously difficult to check for tiny insects that may hide among the gills or in the fleshy part of the mushroom - and insects (with the exception of one type of locust) are most definitely kosher. Therefore, mushrooms must be very carefully and painstakingly examined prior to consumption, and many Jews prefer to avoid them just in case even though they're kosher (the same is true of celery and a variety of vegetables).
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.
