Some human puts some species under some label.

You: I'm not eating anything under this label as it must be alike!

But in this case insects a lobsters are not even close in the tree of life. Maybe they indeed look alike a bit. Do you eat feces because it does look a bit like chocolate?

It’s not that far apart Lobsters and insects both belong to the invertebrate phylum Arthropoda.

If you want to include both spiders which are Chelicerata and grasshoppers which are Hexapoda that’s Arthropoda.

I guess cows are basically fish then. Both Chordates after all /s

Again it depends on the measuring stick. In terms of nutrition costs and fish are rather similar in comparison to say wheat.

If you have a shellfish allergy you are told to avoid eating insects. I know that is the case for crickets at least. So having them compared isn't that out there of an idea.

I'm guessing they avoid any arthropods.

Chocolate and feces isn't really a great analog.
