Yeah that depends like post 2 said. I've flung gnats out of food at bbqs and such and kept eating. They like mashed potatoes for some reason.

If it had a bug in it, and I can remove it, maybe. I won't if it currently has one in it.

depends.
if im at a restaurant, even a fly or gnat landing on my food for a split second grosses me out, but if i'm at home? i dont care.

kinda like finding hair. at the restaurant? gross. at home? don't care cus its hair from my house.

so, stranger bugs? I will not eat you. bugs from home? I will eat you.

the amount of bugs was crazy sometimes. My Brother in Law set up this lamp and collected hundreds of them in a bag and traded them in at this bug guys house for cleaned and marinated ones and all he did was fry them up. Its like eating really crispy popcorn chicken

The fda allows a certain percentage of insect parts to be in all of our food, so we've all been eating bugs (also rodents and feces) our entire lives.

Most everything I eat probably has some in there to an extent. For reasons I don't understand, bugs freak me out though. So if I outright see one touching my food I can't continue. Gives me the willies

We already eat bugs in our food given there's definitely already bugs in your food. I'm 100% confident everyone here eats food with bugs in it.

So taking the literal sense out of it. The question for me becomes, would I eat food that I physically see live or dead bugs in it. The answer is no.

After watching Jeff Goldblum puking on his food in The Fly, I won't eat something that's had flies on it because they're puking all over it. If it's something like a little beetle in my flour idc.

After removing the bug, sure. I'm not going to re-make or re-order a meal just because a bug touched it. Might mention it to a waiter/manager to get a discount or something.

man eating bug kills family's appetite

I would not eat the bug itself. depending on what the bug was I might remove a small bit of the food around it. but I'd definitely still eat the food

Lol, if you eat processed foods you are eating some bugs. FDA actually has acceptable bug levels for foods.

For example: For every cup of cornmeal, the FDA allows an average of one or more whole insects, two or more rodent hairs and 50 or more insect fragments, or one or more fragments of rodent dung

So the literal sense of your question aside, I'm only a no if I physically see one. But I have bad news for anyone thinking they've never eaten a bug and still don't ever accidentally eat them.

The government allows a certain amount of bugs in our food. Bugs that you aren't going to likely ever physically see, but you definitely ate.

Fruits, vegetables, meats, a lot of canned food, and more have bugs in them that you likely won't physically see.

While it's not a bug itself, honey is bee vomit. Which, when you think about it, is at least as gross as eating the bee itself.

If Im at a BBQ and a big lands on my plate, shoe him away and still eat it. If its served to me with a bug in it, no.
