So what word would I use in replacement? Coincidental works; I guess.

Yes, most people mean coincidence when they say 'irony'.

There's even a pop song about irony "Ironic" which completely misuses the word irony, and THAT is ironic.

"The only ironic thing about that song is it's called 'Ironic' and it's written by a woman who doesn't know what irony is. That's quite ironic."
- Ed Byrne (comedian)

Bug parts aren't always a bad thing! Unless it's massive amounts of contaminated s**t or live insects, it's extra protein just thrown in there

To each there own when it comes to disgust, but I don't like the idea of eating bugs.

I would rather die than eat larvae; that's disgusting. Bugs that aren't riddled with bacteria are totally edible if you're hungry enough.

Well yeah, if I was starving (and there were no other options), I would eat bugs. I still don't know if I'd like it, though.

I know that some people say that if you're hungry enough that you'll like the taste of anything, but I don't know if that's true or not...

Heh. It is. And even if you don't like the taste you'll still feel compelled to eat it. It's just how your brain interprets it.

I knowingly ate olive oil that was infested with flies today, and it reminded me of this topic...

It was infested . There were at least ten on the lid, and one fell out of the container itself when I was pouring the oil. The fly didn't actually hit my avocado though, so I think it's fine...
I mean, there's probably fly juice in there... don't flies vomit or something? They were probably eating the olive oil and then throwing up and pooping. Hm. Maybe that wasn't a good idea.

Really wanted olive oil though. :/
RIP. I'm probably going to get mad fly disease.
