Humans have been eating insects for a long time. In south africa they eat ants, china they eat scorpio, thailand they eat crickets...

The ants and the scorpio are quite tasty IMO.

On the other hand, I know of places where their casual vegetables are dangerous because their hold traces of animals feces with pathogens but you couldn't tell when buying them.

And finally, I remember eating the best eggs ever from my mother old neighbourg for years. One day friends from the city come, and eating them, get sick. So there is a strong habit component.

The study on insects is interesting but more informations is needed to draw conclusions.
