I went berry picking with friends and they were all eating the berries, so I started to eat some too. Then I looked closely at one and saw these small mites crawling on them. I gagged and warned all my friends, but they just laughed and kept eating the berries. This was a horrifically disgusting moment for me. How come they were not bothered?

Oh yuck! I would've reacted the same way you did. As to why they kept eating? I honestly don't know why they kept eating. All I know is that some people are just not as picky and selective as others.

You've probably eaten much more than those mites... you just don't know it! As you said, you didn't know you had eaten them. Now just try to remember all the uncooked fruit and veg you've eaten without closely analyzing.
Don't worry about it... it's probably good protein ;-)

Nice story, I haven't eating live bugs, but i've tasted fried worms, they are kind of tasty, really, something like salty cookies,

I have done it not on purpose but we all have ingested bugs at one time, in fact many of our foods have micro bugs on when we eat them fresh.
