There is an indoor shrimp farm in Indiana. Really. They also claim they farm sustainably.

Downside: they don't shell them or cut any bits off or anything. That's your job.

Also, ever eaten a shiny candy? Chances are is coated in confectioners glaze, which is a fancy word for shellac, which is an insect excretion.

That's pretty interesting.
You never think about it, but most of everything is dyed. And that dye has to come from somewhere.

The order Hemiptera would like a word with you.

I've eaten multiple types of insects. All but one (giant water bug, tasted way too much like juniper, which I hate) have been decent. Ants are kind of citrusy because of the formic acid. Meal worms and the beetle larvae I had were kind of nutty. The crickets I had were the style they do in Oaxaca, Mexico, which is fried with chile and lime, so it's basically just crunchy chili lime flavor.

Incidentally, you can get cricket flour, which is exactly what it sounds like. You can either use it as a flour substitute (it also has a nutty flavor) or blend it with plant-based flours and use it in a standard baking recipe either way. And you won't get little legs stuck in your teeth or anything.
