The fuck is this logic. They’re bugs, therefore not food? People eat them, so they are food by definition.
Plus people do eat bugs. It’s just that here most of our bugs are tiny and not really suitable for meals so we think of them as pests.
So fun fact about that: land insects actually trigger the same allergies as shellfish due to the fact that they’re closely related
Some of them also apparently function similarly in the kitchen, since some people who’ve had tarantula said that it’s a lot like softshell crabLand bugs can be eaten, and can be delicious and nutritious
I remember reading once that eating insects would be more efficient than eating beef or meat from larger animals. We can harvest from large animals about 60 to 70 percent of their mass as protein … if we did the same for insects, over 90 percent of their mass would be protein.
You will eat the bugs, you will own nothing, and you will be happy
