If you could find out how many bugs you have swallowed in your entire life would you want to know?

Question

purplepoppy · Accepted Answer

Food regulations usually allows a given number of insect parts per volume when it comes to food. But it must be remembered that many insects are tiny anyway so even with inspection will get missed.
Even fresh food isn't risk free, cauliflower is a maze for bugs to hide in and has anyone ever managed to grow lettuce that isn't covered in greenfly? As for figs, most of those seeds are actually dead wasps.
I reckon we eat thousands every year

I know I ate a lot. I ordered fried bees. Tasted like French fries. Other bugs… in my medicine/food. Do I want to k ow. Sure. Would be interesting to know…

WindAtMyBack · Accepted Answer

Sure, they are probably good protein. I think I've heard the number before but don't remember it. That stuff doesn't bother me. Just a few days ago I knew that a fruit fly got in my soup and I ate it anyway.

What I really don't like though is when they get in my nose. I'd rather swallow them than have them in my nose. They get stuck in there, which is what's supposed to happen.

OpenClose · Accepted Answer

Yeah sure. Not sure how interesting that number would be though. I probably at least tripled it last year snacking on roasted mealworms. They taste about like walnuts except I'm not allergic to them.

If it's anything with long legs like a cricket, I would prefer it in the form of a flour. Haven't gotten past that part quite yet.

Coach, I JUST finished dinner and that picture is disgusting! :) :) :)

MangoBob · Answer

Don’t worry, its good protein, and if you’re on here asking about it, it didn’t kill you. You should worry about how your grandchildren's grandchildren are going to pay their taxes living in a cardboard box with no shoes since that piece of shit biden just sold America into tax slavery.

dustybiker · Answer

I hear you eat a lot in your sleep. For bike riders it’s a lot higher tho… 🙊 Doesn’t bug me either way. Just something that happens.

kellytheman · Answer

I don't think I ever swallowed many bugs except on a bike or four wheeler but I rather don't know or care.

WhiteSteve · Answer

No way, lmao. Did a lot of late night walking in NYC last night, like when all the day’s midtown trash bags are on the curb, and I saw too many waterbugs to even think about that shit😱

I was shocked when I found out how much rodent hairs and insect fragments end up in peanut butter. Also shocked whan you think how the rodent hair gets there in the first place.

maximumpower · Answer

No. Nothing to be gained from the knowledge.  Many more things in which to be interested.

AviatorTom · Answer

Bugs are a good source of protein, and I'm sure the number is in the hundreds, if not thousands, but I really don't need or want to know that.

SabbyTheTeenageWitch · Answer

I know I’ve swallowed a lot. I would eat ants when I was 4 cause I really hated them and wanted them to suffer.

NathanDavis · Answer

I already know... it was one, a mosquito, that sucker...

KelleyNice · Answer

I don't wish to eat bugs but they are high in protein

I would rather want to know how many girls liked me and missed opportunities to screw them.

OddBeMe · Answer

Find out how many organisms live in each of our stomachs. More than human population. Also, hope they paid that model vukoo money for that pic.
