Did you know the average human swallows approximately twelve bugs every year while they are sleeping. Most of these consist of spiders.. Many get creeped out by this fact, which is understandable. Who wants spiders and other bugs crawling there way into your mouth.. Im guessing not many find that appealing. 
Personally, I do not find this too disgusting. If i haven't been affected by it yet, I do not see the harm in it. Though small, many bugs contain key nutrients and are quite good for you. One article I found stated that in the future, bugs will be part of our everyday diet. With population increasing, feeding all those mouths will be increasingly difficult. Bugs may just be the solution to that problem! Most of the bugs listed in this article did not surprise me, however one did stick out in my mind. The STINK BUG does not sound too appealing to me, but it is actually rich in nutrients. This bug is consumed in many regions of Asia, Africa, and South America.

I have consumed different types of bugs in my lifetime. Some include mealworms, crickets, earthworms, june bugs, and grasshoppers.

I don't think I would ever want to make bugs my main diet items, however eating a few of them does not bother me. I just prefer the taste of the food we are used to. Its cool to know which bugs are edible though. You never know when that information can come in handy..
