sounds gross to me but I would eat it if it was cooked properly and hidden well in a dish

I have and I'd do it again! It's a sustainable source of protein with limited suffering involved (to my knowledge insects are often killed with CO in industrial settings),  Eating insects is not as uncommon as people think--most North Americans already do it in the form of cochineal/carmine dye. 

I personally prefer to eat them ground (like cricket flour) vs. whole but that's a personal texture thing more than anything else.

yoikes I'm scared and disgusted of even looking at them bugs, I'd never consider eating them. But I have a friend who is willing to try literally anything that moves xD but I do know tho that there are lots of insects in the food we eat

When I feed the birds, I often think about how a Meal Worm would taste, they smell kinda nice when I open the tub. I think they would be like having a crispy stick of cereal.... Maybe I'm wrong. As for other insects, if they were farmed and sold as safe for human consumption I would give them a go.

Peace and love to you all.

I have already eaten insects and would do it again! I wouldn't eat all insects but in some parts of the world it is common to eat bugs as they're a good source of protein, so I want to try whatever I can. If you can get past the appearance crickets are nice snack since they're crunchy and taste nutty after they've been roasted and seasoned, though know you should always buy bugs specifically prepared to be food for humans or already-prepared food items with bugs. Do not forage insects or buy insects for pet food to eat yourself as it can be dangerous.

Something like this:

yes! they're easy to grow and farm and are a great choice for leaning toward sustainability! they take less space and resources compared to other protein sources and should be looked into more. for the planet :)

totally and i believe in the future we will all be eating insects ᵋ* ूི-̭͡- ૂ ྀᵌ
insect farming takes up less land, produces less methane, less feed is needed to produce meat (1:8) high in protein, omega3 and iron. yum!
