Are you ready to “eat the bugs”?  For a long time, we have been told that “eating the bugs” is just a “conspiracy theory”, but as you will see below more than 2 billion people around the world already eat bugs on a regular basis.  More than 2,000 types of edible insects are being consumed, and bug ingredients are increasingly being used in common foods that we purchase in the grocery stores.  In fact, you could potentially be consuming products that contain insect ingredients without even realizing it.  So anyone that tries to tell you that “eating the bugs” is a conspiracy theory is not being honest with you.  The following are 12 facts that prove that people all over the globe are already “eating the bugs” on a regular basis…

More than 2 billion people worldwide consume insects regularly, according to the United Nations, which a decade ago began pushing pests as a sustainable super-protein for humans, pets, and livestock that can benefit the environment and create jobs in developing countries.

#2 A report that was recently published in a major scientific journal says that 2,205 different kinds of insects are now being consumed all over the globe…

A 2024 report titled “The global atlas of edible insects: analysis of diversity and commonality contributing to food systems and sustainability,” has identified 2205 species consumed across 128 countries. Published in the science journal Nature, it notes that Asia has the highest number of edible insects (932 species), followed by North America (mainly Mexico), and Africa.
