I feel like this is what needs to be stated when talking about eating bugs. If you're giving me bugs that eat what amounts to sugar water then I'm much less concerned about bug poop.

Texture seems important too, and the thought of a sap eating bug that has a similar texture to shrimp... Doesn't sound all that bad. I'm honestly half tempted to try to test it when they emerge.

Seems like there's a fungus that's known to eat their ass, but as long as they're free of that it seems fair game.
