Some of those critters are pretty high in protein!
I made some penne noodles. I boiled the water, and grabbed a box that was already open.
when I went for seconds, I looked more closely at the black specks, as I considered the fact that I didn't add italian seasoning or pepper or anything.
the specks had wings. tiny wings. these looked like fruit flies, and in a pot of what still had maybe two servings, there were maybe 9 visible bodies.
on closer inspection of the box, there were maybe 10 insect corpses awaiting boiling water.
..
I did not have seconds. I don't mind how healthy eating bugs may be.
but
I don't want to eat bugs on purpose.
