Lobsters meet neither the colloquial nor the technical definition of an insect.

We do call them sea bugs, sure. Show me an insect per se with an edible white tissue the size of my palm and we'll talk about it.

Nitpick all you want, but sit down in front of lobster and tell me how insects are gross.

That would be rather easy for most people, but especially those who don't like lobster. Or shrimp. Or crab. Or fish. Or literally any kind of aquatic food whatsoever, whether salt or freshwater.

While you’re right…

Create an oxygen-rich atmosphere and you can engineer big-enough land insects.

See the carboniferous for more details.

Also note that if you’re allergic to shrimp or lobster, chances are pretty high that you’ll get a reaction from eating insects.

It was an advisory from last year’s cicadae boom in the US.
