We probably eat bugs and other things and don’t know it. The
processing of food items covers a lot of differing operations
before it is packaged and sold to the consumer.

.

There are 'allowable' amounts of insect parts, rodent feces, etc.
that the FDA/USDA says are okay if they UNINTENTIONALLY
get into our foods in the manufacturing process(es).

But what they are talking about here is INTENTIONAL.

Once, many years ago, I raised earthworms for fish bait -
But I did not eat them. (The worms I mean - I did eat the fish.)

.

25 years ago I would sometimes go to Aldis for lower costs
on canned goods. But these days the cost of gas precludes
making a special shopping trip. The savings not worth it.
