Many of us have heard stories about the number of bugs we can consume while we sleep, and many of us would be relieved to find out that it's not actually true. The urban legend has been discussed and put to rest by a number of entomologists over the years. That's not to say we don't ingest tons of these tiny creatures throughout an average lifetime, however, because we do. According to experts, it happens through infested crops instead. The FDA has even put guidelines surrounding food defect levels allowing for a certain number of bugs and other contaminants in our commodities.
