I live in Maine for much of the year and won’t even eat sea bugs (lobster). What makes them think I’ll eat land bugs?

with mealworms in high-fat diets for mice could
offer numerous health benefits including reduced
weight gain and improved cholesterol."

Feed them worms to Oprah!

“There's a ‘yuck factor’ for many in Western societies, where eating insects is not quite normal,. . .

There's a 'bullsh!t factor' in everything coming out of leftist scientology too. Did one of Bill Gates' foundations fund this research, the Clintonistas, or one of O'Biden's CCP buddies perhaps?

They need to be bred to be bigger to make a meal.
In that case, what if they get tied of us eating them?

Yep if you have to eat cockroaches you’re not likely to gain weight.

Back in the 70's there was a movement to use red-wriggler worms for meat substitute. There were even advertisements in health food magazine to get into business and make a monetary killing.

Went away after a few years. Didn't pan out.

What goes around; comes around. There is nothing new under the sun.

John the Baptist lived on locusts and wild honey. I will bet that he wasn't fat, either. Not a lot of calories in grasshoppers.

Great — as long as it’s not coerced in any way by government.

When did future food change from Soylent Green to bugs? What comes after bugs when the earth's population hits 20 billion?

Typical childish behavior on the part of grade school bullies.

They corner you and dare you to eat bugs. Beat you until you
chew and swallow. Then they force you to lick a frozen metal lamp post.

Detention anyone?
