I like chipolines but, not eating as replacement to steak, chicken, fish
Agreed , I like grasshoppers in various forms tacos, deep fried with chili powder and garlic, chocolate covered too.
There are places in Austin were people line up and wait for grasshopper tacos and pay $5 each for them at that. At University my neighbors across the hall in the quad room were from Cameroon they had locusts that were deep fried and chili powder and garlic they tasted just like fried shrimp. In fact their word for them translated to desert shrimp. People get so worked up over the bug thing it’s doomer hype while I love some good tinfoil Qtardery and dystopian future madmax fantasy where anywhere on earth has a government forced bugs over other proteins where anywhere even Cuba the USSR or North Korea? Places like Thailand that eat bugs in the regular do so by choice go to a Thai market the number of different species of bugs for sale is amazing, you can get all kinds of proteins bush meat, bats, rodents you name it they have it why because someone is paying for it and it’s cheaper than pork or chicken by the Kg.
