Is there bat guano in potato chips?

AnswerThere is every possibility that at some point or another you have eaten a processed food that has a small amount of bat guano in it. You have also eaten parts of roaches, rat droppings, rat and other rodent hair, and goodness only knows what else. When unimaginably huge amounts of grain and other materials are being processed into food, it is impossible to eliminate all traces of these less than savory rogue condiments. There are limits to such tidbits that are allowable, and any reasonable person knows they are there ― but preferably they are not on your mind as you are eating. Whatever you do, DO NOT THINK about these mystery muchies the next time you are enjoying a big bowl of raisin bran. From the FDAThe Food and Drug Administration in the US has regulations on how much of these substances can be safely consumed by the public. Innocently enough, they call anything from foreign matter to infestation to mold a "defect." The FDA regulations are not specific to any brand like Doritos, so the closest category is potato chips. With potato chips, any "rot" present in less than 6% of pieces by weight is acceptable. They define rot to be plant decomposition due to mold or bacteria. Many of the regulations concern rodent and insect filth (hair, droppings) but not bat guano. The absence of bat guano regulations probably means bat guano is not prevalent enough in processed foods to concern the FDA.

How do you get rid of bats?

You have to close up all the holes that they're using to get in. It's best to do this in the winter, when they're off hibernating somewhere else. Other times of the year it is done with a one-way door of some sort, so they fly away in the evening, then can't get back in in the morning. You don't want to do it in mid-summer, though, because there are likely to be babies left behind while the mothers are off feeding. If you lock the mothers out, the babies will die and rot, which is worse than having live bats in you attic.

There is little tangible evidence available on the existence of

Vampires, and undue weight has to be placed on circumstancial evidence. 1. Every occurrence of human combustion - especially 'spontaneous'

combustion - needs thorough examination. In practice, this is patchy and

details often emerge too late for firm conclusions to be drawn. A trickle of reports has arisen in Eastern and Central Europe, most provided by professional Vampire hunters. Several isolated

reports have come from urban areas in the USA - 50% of these in New York. 2. Vampire-Typical injury reports (neck bites, severe bleeding from small wounds), also need investigation. This is almost impossible, as no health service categorises wounds in a useful way - and victims often go to great lengths to disguise or deny such injury. 3. Exsanguination deaths and missing bodies: A significant number of such

events have occurred in key locations; reports of body snatching have continued, some with no evidence of external assistance, and few with any possible motive for such theft. 4. Vampire sightings have increased in recent years; this may be in part due to unwelcome and inaccurate televisual displays - a badly educated public is in increasing danger, and compounds this by false reports Verification is difficult, but there is sufficient circumstantial evidence, and individual experiences, to assert that not only do Vampires still exist - but they are thriving.

Why are vampires dead?

The rigid definition of a vampire requires them to be dead. However there are people (and things) that have the potential to become vampires and some that have even employed this ability before they died. Persons that are half-vampires, or the child of a vampire are called Dhampirs. Usually they do not employ their vampire abilities until after they are dead as there is no good reason to do so unless you need to steal life-energy. (If you're already alive you create your own life-energy (which is of higher quality than stolen) so you have no need to steal any.) In fact most Dhampirs are vampire hunters. There is the story of Margot Seevel who (supposidly) was the grandchild of a full vampire. As a young child she was dying of small-pox and her parents (by some ritual) awakened the vampire potential in her so she could take life-energy (via blood consumption) to sustain her through the course of the disease. She survived (albeit scarred) and lived an otherwise ordinary life, married and mothered four children. When she died however her body was burned so she wouldn't awaken to become a true vampire.
