Eating insects is normal in many cultures. Calling it obviously creepy and disgusting is imposing your own narrow value system on others. The world is a big and diverse place. If it isn’t hurting anyone (well, other than the crickets), why should it matter? Nobody is going to be forced to eat this if they don’t want to.
There are so many non Western foods that most westerners aren’t into, should they all be banned? And who knows? Maybe adventurous eaters will try it and like it. Sushi used to be viewed as “objectively creepy and disgusting” by many westerners for decades.
