I grew up on a cattle ranch and regularly poked cow stomachs with a stick behind our local cattle processor. As a kid, I had to go out at 4am and 30 degrees F with my grandfather to deliver a breech birth calf (didn't end well).
I'm not afraid of most bugs (spiders a bit, tarantulas a lot, crickets not even a smidge) but I've never had any desire to eat them.

It's cultural: Bugs are not people food.
