There is no scientific evidence that shows that a person eats any certain amount of insects each year. It also depends what your asking here, as in finding them in your food or them crawling in your mouth during sleep.
Most processed foods that you eat have a type of insect or animal in it, whether it is saliva, pieces of the being itself, or if it is the feces of the animal/insect. In any cereals, fruits, or vegetables that you eat a but has been in or on it at some point in time. It is impossible to get insects completely out of the food.
Though eating insects may sound nasty, it is no different than eating many other animals, just less meat and a different crunchy texture and taste. In other countries bugs are eaten as a delicacy. Some people will argue this because many bugs carry diseases, but these people fail to recognize that many animals that they are eating also have the ability to carry disease's. Deer, squirrel, cattle, chicken, and pork. Not only do alot of these animals have the ability to carry disease but some can be host for parasites who use their bodies to lay eggs, and when they are eaten we eat the eggs and then become infected.
Hope this helped.
