      “hypocritical” may not be the best word for it but the point that there isn’t much of a difference between some of the foods we already eat (shrimp, lobster, crayfish) and insects and that the primary block to eating insects is a mental one seems pretty inarguable. (it’s honestly also likely people do eat insects and just don’t know they are–they’re everywhere, unintentionally, in the foods we eat.)
