The meat giant also indicated that four additional plants would close by mid-fiscal 2024, just days after announcing the closure of two major chicken plants.

“Crap low grade beef was $18 a pound yesterday at Kroger. “
Pity they don’t mark it down...
Bought a REAL beautiful, nicely marbled 4# chuck roast @ Albertsons yesterday for $3.45#...
Pot roast this weekend???
Gross! I am allergic to bugs as of today) (Not eating that crap) Need to buy more canned meat.
There was an image during the height of the shortages a while back were all the shelves were bare or nearly, except the “meat alternatives” which was fully stocked.
But they announced they were closing down for the reason of converting to meat alternatives, specifically insects. Are they lying? If so, why?
That certainly won’t keep them (TPTB) from making alternative foods their only offering.
They couldn’t care less about what plebs actually want.
Insects that feed on us , kind of Soylent Green
Remember a few years ago the demented DemonRat hysteria was that cow farts were destroying the ozone layer. So therefore God created an animal that could destroy the earth by farting.
Makes for great fantasy as comedy but its pure lunacy if taken as reality.
While the peasants are eating cockroaches and flies, while crammed in their pods in "15 minute cities", our betters will be dining on Wagyu steaks and poached wild caught salmon, while on their yachts and flying in their Gulftreams.
It's about controlling the smelly, unwashed masses.
Adding: My stomach got upset thinking about this. My ulcers will not like it. Is this part of the nasty agreement we “did not sign” with the WHO? (World health organization)
This ain’t the BEE?
Solving a nonexistent problem.
LOL

What’s so wrong with a cockroach burger?
Finally, someone said it. This hysteria based on a clickbait headline from an obscure “news” website is silly.
“Solving a nonexistent problem.”

Bought me a nice chuck roast yesterday at Wild Fork Meats. Going to smoke it halfway and roast in a pan to finish it off.
Whatever these insane leftists want to ban that is good, we will buy and consume more of it. They can drive their EV vehicles to the Fast Food drive-throughs to purchase their insect burgers.
I seriously hope you're joking.
Free range chickens, which are the healthiest to consume, eat all kinds of things, including bugs and even small RODENTS.
Gordon’s whole sirloin is $3.29 a pound in Vac Bag. (Restaurant Supply store) Of course there you have to buy the whole 15 pound loin. We bring it home and cut it up into 2# Freezer bags. Gordon’s also sells vac bags of whole flank steaks in #15 quantities for $3.59 a pound. Flank steaks are my home made jerky favorite. They bleed out completely and absorb the brine and seasoning quickly because there is zero fat.
