I didn’t know cockroaches were mammals. Everyday is a new lesson on Lemmy.

I don’t like almond milk, but I’d prefer almond milk. But I also don’t drink cow milk, only soy milk.

tachinid flies, like tstete fly produces something equivalent to “milk” for its giant baby.

Close, you actually blend them up and strain out the liquid.

That would definitely be easier than trying to milk them twice a day…

Indeed. Each roach is milked 1 (one) time

From what I remember, the original study was indeed about cockroach “milk”, from a species that births live babies and feeds them a slurry of crystals and proteins. That slurry is the stuff that is technically more “nutritious”
I don’t think anyone is actually trying to get humans to consume the stuff. There are a lot of mammals that produce milk that is more nutrient dense than cow milk, it’s just not as easy to collect it + theres little reason to do so
