/sarcasm on/Now I know what the food discs from "Buck Rogers in the 25th Century" and those squares of food from "Star Trek" were made of./sarcasm off/ One of the major markers of class in the past was food. The elites had access to meat and cheese while the rest of society ate mostly bread and other grain products. This is the main reason gout, caused by excessive consumption of meat and wine, was associated with the rich. In Europe, the elites justified this unequal access to food by claiming they had a different constitution from their inferiors. It appears we ae headed back to food as a marker of class as the World Economic Forum types are able to eat meat while the rest of us have to make due with insects for protein.

Crickets fried in olive oil, with sea salt and lime, and are very tasty. They are crunchy with a nut-like flavor, although some that I have tried taste like grilled chicken skin.

However, being forced to eat insects is evil!!!!
Moreover, at least some people with shellfish allergies may also be allergic to insect-based food!!!! PHOOEY!!!!

Crickets carry E. coli, salmonella and worms in their bodies and excrement.

If it comes to that, none of our Betters will be eating like the peons.
An excellent example is in Atlas Shrugged.
