Thanks for reaching out about Carmine. Not sure what type of food you are searching for, a powder to top-coat insects. A variety of insects can be offered, and gut loaded. Vitamin D3 can be over supplemented so powdered should only be used once weekly. Exposure to ultraviolet B radiation is very important for the absorption of calcium in the intestinal tract. Catch insects outdoors, as long as your not spraying. Good luck.
