Lobsters are commonly referred to as bugs as well.
There is no scientific definition of “bug”, but the folk definition seems to be any invertebrate, typically with more than four limbs.
The order Hemiptera would like a word with you.
Tons of people happily eat insects too. Chapulines are pretty good, escamoles are popular, silk worm is eaten in Korea and Thailand, there's Witchetty grubs and honeypot ants...
Shrimp as well. It's weird and for me the flavor isn't good enough to justify eating weird crunchy sea bugs
Crunchy? You aren’t supposed to eat the shell
Moist crunch, not hard crunch. Like grapes I guess. It's gross.
