Question: I think I have read it somewhere, but I'm not sure... anyone know?

It's not really accidental. There is a certain amount of legal level of bug carcasses and other things that are allowed to get in our food, because they're not harmful. It's not like you're going to pour out a bowl of cheerios and accidentally eat a whole roach....but you might eat a microscopic piece of a bug here and there.

That's untrue. I know that the average spiders eaten a year is two, so the number of insects probably isn't very far off. (Unless you count dust mites, but that's an inferiority.)

I have heard that the average person eats about 7 spiders a year I'm not sure about other bugs.

not a thousand, but yup, they do
