It is legal for your food to contain trace parts of insects

Odds are you are eating a few bugs every day. Well, not whole bugs, but pieces of mashed-up bugs are found in food everywhere. For the chocolate lovers out there, your chocolate bar may contain anywhere between 20 to 40 insects parts. There may also be some rodent hair in there, but that is another story. Bugs are a natural byproduct of harvesting many foods, and they do not add anything dangerous, other than the thought that there is a cricket leg in your burger!
