What's so wrong with this? Can you not just give up regular meat for the betterment of the world?

Their hard exoskeletons containing chitin are difficult for humans to digest, leading to potential digestive issues.
And bugs lack essential nutrients like vitamins, minerals, and healthy fats, unlike other protein sources.
They can carry toxins, allergens, and pathogens, posing a risk of foodborne illnesses.

It is not for the betterment of the world
It does not help the planet
the FACT is bug production is an inefficient use of resources
And as Anony D brought up
@previous (D)
chitin is bad for humans
worms don't have the chitin still not eating them

BBQ roast crickets. I didn't like them. I'd rather the planet burn than eat bugs to be honest.

You eat many bugs in your sleep. They are attracted to the warm moist openings in your face and get swallowed reflexively.
