If you eat any food then you're already eating bugs lol

You also have mites in your eyelids like everyone else

This is probably the most disingenuous argument I’ve seen about this. Mites in your eye lashes have nothing to do with food and the amount of bugs allowed in our food is negligible. Purposefully eating them is completely different than incidentally eating them.

TBH eating bugs will probably be cleaner. Insects have fewer natural parasites, and often have a wide range of important nutrients in them. Think of it this way. Chicken nuggets, ground beef, breakfast sausage are all ground remnants of the animal. How about instead of pork/chicken/ beef ground up, we do bugs? I bet they could be seasoned and modified accordingly to match the desired pallette. Around the world, outside of the relatively small western hemisphere bugs are widely consumed when available.
