In Mexico they eat grasshoppers which are seasoned and cooked, Chapulines. I've had them, not bad, they tasted like the seasoning, not much to them. I definitely am not going to eat a 1/2 pound of them if I'm starving.
Maybe I'd try it, I've eaten rattle snake seems like eating a snake would be more satanic than a bug. To me eating a bug is out of desperation or an oddity.
Another thing we eat tons of bugs all the time by accident. Most processed or premade foods have guidelines on how many bug parts can be in them because it's unavoidable.
It's not santanic, it's cultural. In Asia and South America, eating bugs is a very common practice going back for centuries. But they live in different ecological systems than we do. As long as it's local, and organic, and has nutritional value, whatever tickles your fancy.
We might have to eat bugs at some point of over population but not now. This to me is just another reason for population control outside of West.
Fucking blah blah blah, in the meantime people who repeat this canard. Fail to factor in all of the Farm and Dairy land in America that has either been made idle or developed into McMansions with a Whole Foods/Panera anchor shopping center. If we ever experience such food pressures in America that we resort to eating bugs for survival. It will only be at the result of the Evil Vile Cocksucker Socialist Satanic Commies successful attempt to make us one day depend on eating bugs. Then you know what those sons of bitches would do then? Start a "Bugs have feelings too!" campaign.
I say the world lays all of the leftist away, before we ever get to that point.

The globalists and freaks in the left-wing media are trying to convince people to eat bugs.
Cicadas are loud, winged insects that emerge from the ground every 17 years.
This year the elitists are telling people to cook them up and eat them.
A Leesburg, Virginia restaurant is serving Cicada tacos and some customers say they taste like shrimp.
Eating bugs is degrading and that’s why the elitists are pushing them as a “sustainable” source of protein for the peasants.
