I am totally ready to be forced to toil in the underground sugar caves, to please our insect masters.
That's so last year, BurtYummy! Will people boycott or rebel? No, of course not. In fact, they are already adding them to foods as well as MRNAs. Insects are a toxin to humans, but crunch away .... save the Earth lol. Let the depop continue; great for the planet.
All while TPTB dine on grass fed luxury steaks and pastured raised eggs for themselves.

She'll just bite your head off...
As Pumbaa would say: Slimy, yet satisfying…People have been eating insects and surviving for millennia. In Africa, the hotel buffets served roasted Mopane worms, which are really caterpillars of some sort of moth. I ate them, I didn't get sick nor was I consumed by their offspring etc. etc.
People eat shrimp which are arthropods that swim in swarms rather than fly. They are all just protein that our bodies can assimilate. Bugs would not be my first choice for dinner, but it is useful information to know that I can eat them to stave off starvation.
fyi, Roasted Mopane worms tasted like sardines to me. Crunchy sardines.
CPT Scott O'Grady knows...Bugs would not be my first choice for dinner, but it is useful information to know that I can eat them to stave off starvation.
To be fair, they weren't slimy, they were dried and crunchy and yes, they remove the guts before cooking them.As Pumbaa would say: Slimy, yet satisfying…
Thai scorpions are crunchy...To be fair, they weren't slimy, they were dried and crunchy and yes, they remove the guts before cooking them.
In your mouth or under your heel?Thai scorpions are crunchy...
China has existed for centuries on a huge famine cycle with at least one major 7-figure starvation event per generation.In your mouth or under your heel?
I saw photos of scorpions on a stick from some street vendor at the Peking olympics. Now I am leery of the quality (And safety) of food from any 3rd world street vendor. So my 1st thought upon seeing that wassome enterprising homeless dude in Beijing wondering how to make a buck off the hordes of tourists coming to town. He then gets stung by a scorpion and a light bulb goes off in his head. So he makes a few yuan cleaning scorpions out of people's homes, enough money to but a hibachi, some skewers , seasoning and some charcoal and now Big Ole from Stockholm and Pierre from Lyon and Merton and Ethel from Bugtussle Arkansas and thousands more visitors all return home with tales of exotic food and diarrhea they all had at the Olympics, and this one-time homeless dude (or dudette) is now an oligarch.
I ate them. They weren't too bad. The heat of cooking neutralizes the venom.In your mouth or under your heel?

No thanks. Been there, didn't do that.The fried tarantulas in Laos/Cambodia are not to be missed The small grubs taste like seafood but the big ones are less palatable to a western stomach. I'll root around for a photo later. No reason to go hungry if you've got bugs like that all over. Wonderful cooks there really do the stuff right.
