This is their plan. The 90% get insects and other "environmentally friendly" food while the big shots continue eating Chilean Sea Bass, Lobster, Prime Beef, Heritage Pork and waterfowl.

It’s for “the common good” doncha know.

Bill Gates George Soros and Al Gore can all go stuff themselves on roaches.

They’ve been predicting people are going to eat bugs for decades. It’s nobody’s plan, it’s just a stupid article they recycle during slow news times.

What kind of liberal clap trap is this?
People eat meat (poultry, fish, crustaceans, and mammals).
Everything else is what food eats.

I can open a store because I have them in my house every day it seems. Just got one an hour ago. PLEASE DON’T YOU TELL ME IT’S BAD LUCK TO KILL A CRICKET.

Crustaceans are basically bugs.

[antidisestablishment]

Man, I’m glad we’re in the top 10%!

Hard to digest the metal ...

My gut might like crickets, but my lips and tongue and teeth and throat and eyes and fingers won’t like them, even if they are crispy-fried and slathered in catsup.

Met a real nice family from Ouaxaco who made some of the Mole’ I have ever had.

Asked if they had any grasshoppers and was told “next time”.

They’re actually very good.

Steak is better.....and fish....and chicken....

Not all the LOONS on Lake Mendota have feathers.

CRICKET DISEASES excerpt...

Crickets also are prone to eat other dead crickets or other dead animals and feces. The items that they have eaten could have been exposed to dangerous pathogens. If you feed your pets infected crickets, the pets get sick. If you have more than one pet, they could spread this sickness through their fecal matter and dead skin cells.

Yeah - and keep your partner up all night listening to crickets in their stomach.

Some ants contain formic acid. Don’t eat the yellow crazy ones!

[Liberal Anti Venom]

Yep. My sister-in-law says crickets are just glorified cockroaches.

I will decline consuming insects for fear of being labeled for culture appropriation.

I will stick with beef cattle and chickens. NOW GET OFF MY YARD!

[MarMema]

Agree. Saw this budding on the west coast just before we left.

This is enviro-crap warfare on real food.
