Also, there was some confusion with the translation of pomegranate in some languages which may have caused some uncertainty with what the fruit may have been from the Adam and Eve.

All I can say after reading this very enlightening post is: Watch what you eat; are you going to stop eating those delicious foods you didn't know contained these 2 hidden ingredients? What you didn't know before didn't hurt you, now that you know... what will your decision be? Beavers Butt and cochineal are probably used in medications too. If they are used for the cure, are you going to refuse the meds? Your well written article have given me a lot to ponder on this gross discovery. Love your posts.
