The problem with promoting the eating of bugs is that people will will not know that some bugs are good to eat. This is especially true of people with shellfish allergies. People with shellfish allergies should avoid eating insects due to the potential for cross-reactivity. Caterpillars, larval moths, and beetles. Never consume disease-carrying bugs like ticks, flies and mosquitoes. You should not eat hairy bugs because there may be stingers hiding in their fur. You should also avoid any insects that you know can bite or sting or that have a very strong odor.

Because some people will fail to use caution, it is best to eat what is commercially provided rather than go on one’s own.

I’ll make the sacrifice and let the chickens take the risk and process the bugs first.

Then I’ll eat the chicken.
