I've been curious how eating insects is coming across as an "end times" topic? It doesn't seem to make sense to me...just because it's against western society norms doesn't mean that it is end times type of stuff.
We have instances in The Holy Bible that go way back:
Matthew 3:4 NIV:
John’s clothes were made of camel’s hair, and he had a leather belt around his waist. His food was locusts and wild honey.
Leviticus 11:20 - 23 NIV:
“‘All flying insects that walk on all fours are to be regarded as unclean by you. There are, however, some flying insects that walk on all fours that you may eat: those that have jointed legs for hopping on the ground. Of these you may eat any kind of locust, katydid, cricket or grasshopper. But all other flying insects that have four legs you are to regard as unclean.
The FDA has already allowed bugs to be slipped into food for many years...
According to the FDA, there cannot be more than 225 bugs parts in 225 grams of pasta, 50 parasitic cysts per 100 pounds of fish, 60 insect fragments into ever 100 grams of chocolate, etc. etc.
In other countries, they are still a common delicacy and used plenty on certain holidays as treats (parts of Africa, China, Japan, Brazil, etc).
Insects seem to have been weaving into the USA over the past few years. Many people say it's a cheaper source of protein, although if you want organic it's a bit debatable and a burger might very well be cheaper. There are many that will put it in their smoothies and such. There are some reedeming nutritional qualities besides protein and that's vitamin b12, calcium, potassium, amino acids, and good fats. It also fits within the paleo and keto diets.
Although, people with a crustacean shellfish allergy may be allergic or sensitive to crickets. Most people don't know this, but it's an important note if one has issues with certain types of sea food.
One day I hope to perhaps try it, but only if I can verify the source is good and so that I can't completely taste it in whatever I put it in. =P
