I’ve eaten insects several times and, with one exception, they tasted fine once you got over the ick factor.
Longicorn beetle larvae and grasshoppers tasted nutty, like pecans.
Ants tasted citrusy, probably because of the formic acid.
The only one I didn’t like was giant water bug, because it had a juniper taste to it and I don’t like that particular taste.
people are afraid of parasitic larvae and eggs. but once healthy safety, taste and apperance are controlled and industrialized properly, insects could be an interesting alternative. no more eating those beautiful shrimps, fished with gas guzzling fishing boats, and no more methane emitting cows
That’s the thing I find baffling and why I had no problem with insects. People eat shrimp. People go out of their way to eat crab and lobster. What’s the big difference other than one being in water and the other being on land? Size?
Fuck the fucking fuck right off with that fucking shite.
I have limited time on this earth and I am not spending a second of that intentionally eating bloody insects. Jesus fuck.
but they r pushing the LiMitS bro!
Software developer everywhere rejoice
Those poor bugs :(
shrimps: always have been
Well, technically those are crustaceans.
Can’t watch it with sound right now, but that dude has some serious Klaus Schwab vibes.

The problem with that is, that if we over fish the sea, and we kill the ocean, we die. We NEED the ocean to live, as that's where the majority of our oxygen comes from.
