I’ve wondered about this before, just from the perspective of North Americans. Bugs that live in the water? Delicious and fine to eat. Actually look at a shrimp, though. If it lived on the surface people would never consider eating that. I also noticed a lot of people don’t really realize that at some point shrimp have heads. What gets me is how people have strong feelings but don’t seem to have thought it through.

I'm pretty sure I gobbled up a spider and/or a small stink bug while eating berries the other day

Oh well

I kind of miss when Hot Topic used to sell crickets and snacks, they were pretty good no cap
