Why Not Eat Bugs?

Chocolate-covered Scorpions
To be completely honest, I am perfectly happy eating bugs the way I do now. I don't see them in my food, no eyes or larvae or anything, to me its just soup or peanut butter.

For those people that want to eat bugs I say that they should be openly available to those people. I support those of you that want to eat bugs, I don't mind. But for me I just really hate bugs, even just looking at them creeps me out. I think I'll go vegetarian before I resort to eating WHOLE bugs. (Peanut butter is fine for my protein resource)

I understand that eating bugs would be good for the economy and everything. But they already put them in my food so, maybe they could just put them in more sorts of food. Again, I'm alright with it as long as I can't see them.

And the whole "less diseases" thing, well, that's probably true. We are so different from bugs that we wouldn't get diseases from them like we can from pigs. Fortunatley, pork doesn't crunch, I don't think I could handle a bug crunching in my mouth, I can barely handle them being crunched when someone steps on one.

In conclusion, people that want to eat bugs, go for it. I'm gonna stick with what I'm doing now.
