No. This is a popular myth.

It is possible that some of the things we eat (such as rice) may contain some small parts of dead insects. The amount is impossible to quantify for an average diet.

How many insects do humans eat?

it is said to believe that humans eat about one pound of insects every year without even knowing it! But that is just myth!! There is no scientific proof that we eat a pound of insects every year. There are insect pieces in almost all processed foods sold in any grocery store. How much processed food we eat determines how many bugs we eat. YAY!

Do most humans eat a pound of insects a year without even knowing it?

I have heard that before, but I always thought it was ridiculous. But then I read an answer to a similar question on this site, and found out that the insects find their way into processed food. It's not that pounds of insects crawl into your mouth every year while you're asleep, which is what I thought they were talking about when they said people eat pounds of insects a year. Unfortunately, I can't find the question again. Even if it's true, the amount is likely greatly exaggerated. It's probably not anywhere near a whole pound.
