They already do, it’s just a novelty though. I’d love to see the campaign to get critters in your belly though. I’ve had some wild foods, but I tend to draw the line at most bugs.

Yeah I've seen candy with bugs in them since the early 90s. Farmer mart type places usually have fried or chocolate covered in some form too.

I was once eating chocolate coated coffee beans… one was decidedly NOT a bean and was a lady bug… I’ve stopped eating chocolate coated coffee beans.

Ah fuck I love those too! Devastating betrayal of your palette lol

Had a friend in school eat a ladybug as a dare and he said it tasted awful, he would regularly eat crickets and ants no problem.
