    Ever ate pecans? You may well have chowed a few grubs.

    Guy came in our forestry class to lecture on pecan orchards, big business in OK. He handed a bag of shelled nuts for us to inspect. It had a couple of grubs in there and you could barely pick them out from the nuts. Also, they eat pecans, they taste like pecans.

    I mean, there’s a reason why we luke pasta. The protein, the looks, the taste… It’s basically fair maggots

      Sure, all that protein and maggot taste in pasta.

      Btw I’m sorry about… Whatever the fuck kind of childhood abuse that lead to that sentence.

    Anyone who eats guava straight from the tree probably ate far more maggots through their life than any H. neanderthalensis did. Including myself.

    …damn, I miss that guava tree.

      Aren’t there like little harmless worms in strawberries? I definitely have eaten like thousands of those worms.

        Yup! The ones in guava are bigger though, far more visible, and people always joke the worst part isn’t finding a worm there, but half a worm. (Just a wee bit of protein~)

    I thought it was pasta and marinara. Now I see I’m evolutionary wired for pasta and marinara.

    How do we know they weren’t just eating rancid meat rather than directly eating maggots?
