They'd die, just like people. Mammals in general can't digest chitin. There aren't any human populations that consume a significant amount of insect protien. It's just a trick to demoralize and humiliate the peasantry.

This is one situation where I can say, “how can a billion Chinese people be wrong?” without sarcasm. Roasted grasshopper is sold as a snack. Whole grasshopper. People aren’t dying from it.

Pretty sure pigs eat grubs the find when they root in the dirt.

Nah, they reject insect food. Have you ever been physically forced to eat bugs? We can change that!

You are a very strange person.
