Around the world, 2 billion people in 130 countries regularly eat insects.
Yea in all the poor shithole countries and east Asia where they like weird shite.
Good luck convincing Americans to give up the cheeseburger for a cockroach. We will be in civil war before that happens

Progressives (The Spleen, mmmmbeer, OweO, HHTM, etc.) are part of a group that holds incredibly fricked up views.

Insects are not an important food source right now.
But they are a food source. And a far healthier food source than most of the bullshite people eat these days.
Eating insect = unnatural
Chugging a liter of cola = perfectly natural

I’d eat a bug. I’m sure if it was cooked right it would taste great. I mean hell we eat birds, reptiles, mammals, fish, crustaceans, why not insects?

United Nations food experts have been pushing insects as a good source of nutrition for years. They say that their consumption could reduce greenhouse gas emissions from livestock.
Would never eat bugs. Only the finest cuts of beef for them. Bugs are for the rest of us little people.

If the impetus for this was, say, chefs trying to broaden our palates, it would still be annoying but more tolerable
But when the Economist and Davos speakers are trying to tell us how we really must start eating more insects, knowing the authors and speakers absolutely do not eat insects at all, people are going to raise eyebrows

Too many people. When we run out of insects we’ll start eating each other, and not in the good way.

“Cut fossil fuels!” - They fly in private jets and have yachts.
“Eat bugs!” - They will eat steaks.
These ideas should be rejected until the progressive royalty lives the lifestyle.

I eat a shite load of meat, almost all of it factory farmed.
I wish I could buy it all local off of sustainable farms, but I'm not paying $12/lb for ground beef.
I don't know why anyone would be opposed to a better way to create food because the current model sucks
Posted on 6/20/22 at 11:10 am to Pettifogger
Synthetic meat/protein will probably be more widely available/mainstream in the future than bugs will ever be.
But I guess that doesn't make clickbait headlines.

I used to hunt all the time, but I haven't been going hardly at all the last few years. I would love to get back into it.
Edit: by few years I mean like a decade

at the Pro-Bug diet advocates on this thread. No wonder Davos is already so confident of their Bug-Burger/Bug Diet gaslight operation. Even the pods here have convinced themselves that Bug-Meat is not only tasty, but acceptable.
Maybe I should consider getting in at ground-level on the whole coming Bug-Snacks / vending machines gig. Wise and Frito Lay: OUT. Orkin and Terminix IN.

Nothing.
Knowingly or unknowingly you eat some disgusting shite on par with or worse than a cricket and you don't question it because you have been conditioned not to.
