Pro life tip: if you mess around with #carmine red #foodcoloring you'll notice it also dyes skin quite well. Scrubbing helps a bit but not much.

So my noob chem brain suggested #sodiumhypochlorite since it effectively assaults many organic dyes. Not a nice chemical but I always have it on hand and it performed a quick permanent scheduled alteration of #carminicacid, rendering it colorless 😈

(note: NaClO is a caustic chemical that should never be used for regular hand cleaning)

#Carmine, also called #cochineal, is a pigment of a bright-red color obtained from the aluminium complex derived from carminic acid.

Synthetic carminic acid is complex to produce. Therefore, natural cochineal carmine is predominant on the market.

To prepare carmine, powdered scale insect bodies are boiled in an ammonia or sodium carbonate solution. #Gelatin may be added to modify the precipitation.

To obtain 1 pound of red dye, one needs 70,000 cochineal bugs.

Sometimes "natural" means made out of bugs (better that than some petroleum product) 🙂

Here a “tunera” (#pricklypearcactus in Spanish of the #CanaryIslands) from #BoxingDay’s #Walk in #tilosdemoya. I took this picture to show my husband the #cochineal parasitising the pads of the cactus. Once an important part of the #CanarianEconomy, cochineal was collected to extract the red dye #carmine which is used in cosmetics, drugs or foods. It is for example used to colour the #Cubanitos, a biscuit produced in Gran Canaria by Galletas Bandama https://www.galletasbandama.com/productos/cubanitos/ #history
