I would not be worried about vaping an insect leg, or even a hair. It's just protein. I buy some pretty great mexican masa tamales out of the back of someone's truck ........ whom I know. She makes the best I've ever had.
The difference is, she is not a business, per se. We have to seek her out and only people who know her know she will make these for you. She is not selling on an internet site, and she has not opened a public restaurant.
Finding *stuff* in my juice is more about the conditions in the area where it is made, for me.
Kitchen table is for DIYers, not a business entity. I like to think that my product, which I am injesting into my body, is being made in a dedicated area that is free from spider webs, pets, dirty hands, snotty runny noses of children, etc.
If I wanted to buy DIY, I could approach about 200 people on this forum and get some juice for about 10 cents or less a ml.
To me, opening a business announces to the world that you are a professional. Therefore everything that happens between the time I order and the time I receive my juice should be done under, and in, a business professional manner. If you can't measure up to that, then just make DIY for your neighbors and friends.
I sometimes repair computers and operating systems for poor and elderly people I meet. I don't charge, I just try to fix their problems if i can. If I were interested in servicing mission-critical businesses, I'd get a web site, a business card, and I'd be charging at the level of expectation, complexity, liability etc. that is expected when you are a full-fledged business.......and charging accordingly.
Big difference if you ask me?
This definition of "mom and pop" that some people have just eludes me. There are a few small eateries and deli places here in AR that are mom and pop......but I can assure you, they are not making my sandwich over in their trailer house and running it over to the table I'm sitting at. They are a business, are inspected, and customers also get to SEE where their food is being made and served. Mom and Pop doesn't mean the garage, the basement, the kitchen table, or the tool shed.
Supporting some of these odd "kitchen table" concepts is the perfect avenue by which to backwards-advance our industry into the category of lauging-stock. That would be very unfair to the mostly highly professional vendors we have in the ejuice business, who are doing things RIGHT. 99% of them are doing things right.
