Since pigs are the closest to humans than any animal, maybe
it will be the ‘C-CURE’ /s of course

I grow them for my chickens. Take the waste to the garden to spread under my fruit trees.

Can BSF burgers and brats be the next thing.

Don’t laugh. They’re peddling meat made of plants.

[ Once you harvest soybeans, that naturally dry in the field, you can store them at room temperature. They won’t hatch and become a plague. ]

But they WILL make you gay if you eat enough of them!

Do the Danes realize what having their pork be labeled as “bug fed” is going to do to its appeal? Its sales? Its collateral effect on Danish pork sales even if raised on the regular soybean diet?

Sounds okay...ish...but what about stopping ethanol from corn production? That is driving up meat prices.

My chickens are gobbling them up right now in their coop. Very good free nutritious meals.

Black soldier fly

So you know what they look like.

People can use them as food!

"Black soldier flies are considered to be sanitary, as they're designed to break down the bacteria in their food.
They're so efficient at this that there's no bacteria in their waste once they've digested it.
In fact, to survive they've had to develop an odour that repels other household pests from them.
Black soldier flies best known for being an excellent source of protein.
They don't create protein themselves, rather, they process protein from the things they eat.
BSFL contain up to 43% of protein and are rich in calcium and other nutrients.
In fact, you can even create flours from the insect themselves.
They're perfect for those who are looking to obtain their protein from more ethically sound sources than regular farming.
Those that have tried the black soldier fly larvae say that when cooking it, they smell somewhat like potatoes. When you eat them,
they taste nutty and meaty, with a texture of soft meat. "

Yumm! By the time the Democrats have finished plundered the Treasury we will be begging to eat these things!
(I report, you decide! )
