and I'd describe it as nutty, also. Pro tip: remove as much of the bu Agriculture provided reliable food year round. Bugs threatened that, so they became despised and disgusting.g's feet, wings, and exoskeleton as possible, chitin stuck in your teeth is really hard to dislodge.

What happened to turn bugs and grubs from a tasty snack to disgusting is agriculture. Kids with slingshots could take care of the birds and bunnies and even deer, chasing them off and providing dinner if they were good shots. Bugs were problematic, nesting birds the only real control available at the time of early agriculture. It's no wonder they became despised and disgusting.
