Yes. We do eat many insects throughout our lives without ever knowing it. They are in our food (an may happen to be in processed edible items) as well as our water and our evnviroment, and they can certainly end up in our mouths without us knowing it.

Not 100 percent sure but it something like, the average human eats 7 bugs a year without knowing it. A main reason is because when we sleep, they get themselves eaten.

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 humans really eat insects without knowing?

Many pacific islands were without insects or flies before sailing ships arrived. The people on them lived just fine. In the 1920s and 1930s many areas in the southern part of the United States poured oil over their swamps and temporally got rid of their mosquitoes when the United States wiped out Malaria. When that stopped, the mosquitoes came back but the malaria did not. Since so many insects eat plants and arachnids eat insects, without arachnids, we would starve. No. we could not live without them.
