Why do people say that eating a bug accidently is, "extra protein"?

Is it that you did not intend to eat it and that makes it extra or they really contain a lot of protein. Either way its just gross.

    You are going to be excellent. I've eaten ants, sand, grass (of course all by accident) and i am nonetheless alive. It perhaps gross and all however you've gotten performed all that you would be able to. You normally still feel it in your tongue because you have been freaked out, and extra sensitive. How giant was once the computer virus? What kind used to be it? If it was once like a cockroach or something like that, i would be in way worse form. Fairly suggestion, i'm a hundred% certain you'll be first-class.

    Bugs really are particularly high in protein.

    It's still a joke though.

    Bugs are protein. Most are fat free. Estimates are we eat 10-20 lbs of bugs a year.

    Just one wouldn't do anything unless your a little lizard haha but they have protein because they are animals and if you accident eat it, it's raw and I'm sure there's more protein when it's raw.
