Overall
(missed a comma) it is evident that Mexicans have the highest willingness to consume insect products
(missed a comma) while
Japan is at the least position.
Japanese rank the lowest. Moreover, the prices of insects or bugs are relatively higher than meat products.
To begin with,
At 71%, Mexico accounted for the
maximum highest of 71% preference
for consuming to consume insects and bugs.
(followed by... dont put a full stop. You score higher when you use sentence joiners.) . Similarly, Peru and Thailand
(comma) both
averaged averaging around 57%
willingness in terms to include insects in their diet (no need to explain again) while it was the
least lowest (because you used "highest" at the beginning of the sentence) in Japan with a mere 21%.
This Proportion in Brazil and China

Fondness for the same diet for rest of the 6 countries (Brazil, China, UK, USA, Australia, Spain, India, and Russia) lies leading UK, USA, Australia, India, Spain and Russia with percentages between 36% to 32%.

Likewise, rice products cost even less than 1 USD/Kg. (
conclusion missing. What is the conclusion? One implication could be that the population which show a higher willingness to consume insects should also expect per capita food expenditure to be significantly higher than others. You will have to round up your observation with an insight.
