This article made me laugh.
When it 'comes down to it', shellac 'is a word most commonly associated with the stuff we coat our nails in'.
'Taking Kate into the jungle, her host Tomas explained that the key component is found in trees.
Baffled, the presenter starts looking around and is shocked when they cut down a branch covered in what Tomas describes as insect nests.
The insects, known as lac beetles, spend their whole life attached to a tree, sucking up its sap'.
Tomas, explains: ‘The shining product we make it from pee or waste from the beetles.’
In a voiceover Matt explains that the female lac beetle excretes their waste onto the branches of the trees to make a hard protective nest.
It’s this nest with the live and dead beetles in which the pickers scrape off to make shellac, which is why some super-strict vegans don’t consider some lemons to be vegan-friendly.
Here is the article to read - if you dare !
