Tyson, a major US producer of beef, pork and chicken, is betting on protein that comes from insects.
The meat processor said on Tuesday that it has invested in Protix, a Netherlands-based insect ingredients maker. Tyson is not only taking a minority stake in the company, but is working alongside it to build a US factory. That facility will use animal waste to feed black soldier flies, which will then be turned into food for pets, poultry and fish. Tyson did not disclose the financial specifics of the deal.
Those flies are not going into human food, at this point. “Today, we’re focused on more of [an] ingredient application with insect protein than we are a consumer application,” said John R. Tyson, chief financial officer of Tyson Food

Don’t you eat at McDonalds?
Shrimp and lobster are bugs from the sea!
I’m not eating maggots
Remember when insects in food was a health code violation? Soon it will be a requirement.
In the movie Quigley Down Under, Quigley and his female sidekick ate taken in by aborigines. Having done them a great service, Quigley is well taken care of.
At one point, he was offered two very large grubs. She ate hers right down. Quigley had a problem
So, the message is that some insect larvae are consumable in societies where their is no home grown protein.
So, far, I have consumed no insect larvae that I know of
New from the Soylent Corporation.
Soylent Green is people.
Black soldier fly larvae voraciously EAT the maggots of horseflies, etc., as well as any plant or animal waste, reducing pathogens. If you have them around, they keep an aviary or even a farm really clean. They do not resemble houseful maggots- soldier fly larvae look more like caterpillars.
They do not smell, in fact prevent odors by rapidly consuming any waste or housefly and blowfly or other larvae in waste. They also eat spoiled feed. When they have eaten up all the nasty stuff, they are easy to shovel into tubs and rinse to use for other things or to dispose of by feeding to wildlife. They dry easily, smell good, and are excellent poultry, wild bird food, fish food and an readily available non-slimy bait for fishing.
My chickens would go crazy for them whenever I cleaned out the litter in my parrot aviaries.
But, since they are not a rib eye steak, don’t have the aroma of a and wouldn’t even pass as a french fry or asparagus spear, you will never catch me eating them.
Exactly. They just went on my list. Go to full-blown war with these NWO globalists using your wallet as a weapon.
Thanks for info.
Not sure exactly what is put in a Big Stinky fly catcher, but the bag is full of maggots when it gets full of flies.
The odor is overwhelming.
Ugghh
Now when I see the brand “Tyson” I will think of insect powder….
Who in the heck thought this asinine agenda up? How did we go from mankind enjoying themselves, eating what they want, to “you will give up you fossil fuel run items like cars, gas stoves, furnaces, etc etc etc, and you will eat bugs and enjoy it!”? And “Your nation will go from a technologically advanced nation to a third world craphole and like it”?
They need to invest in electric vehicles as well.
For example, the FDA allows up to 225 insect fragments per 225 grams of macaroni and noodle products, up to 30 insect fragments in 100 grams of peanut butter, up to 50 thrip insects in 100 grams of sauerkraut, up to 30 fly eggs per 100 grams of tomato paste or pizza sauce, and up to 75 insect fragments per 50 grams of wheat flour.
Bon appétit!
Teb: Are you enjoying your Kep-mok bloodticks Dr. Lazarus?
Alexander (as Dr. Lazarus): Just like mother used to make.
Why don’t they just feed the insects to their chickens??? When I had chickens (years ago) their two favorite foods were grasshoppers and watermelon...then there was none available, they would eat the chicken feed.
I would go to the Kroger 3 times a week and pick up the “spoiled produce” that they kept for me...chickens went crazy when I backed the truck up to the chicken yard.
