I watch survival and bushcraft guys like Les Stroud or Ray Mears eat things like wichetty grubs or wood ant pupae (cooked) and I think, “That doesn’t look too bad. I could eat that.” (Note: Most of us already eat cochineal beetle larva/pupae on a regular basis since it’s used as food coloring.) But whenever a researcher or entrepreneur jumps on the insects as food bandwagon it’s always maggots, or worse, roaches. I think the researchers feel that the closer they can get us to eating sewage the better.
Didn’t John the Baptist eat locusts? I wonder if he cooked them first. There are some things I prefer raw, such as tuna, which not everyone understands. That is to say, it grosses them out. Anyway, humans consume other living things exclusively, which is why we are parasites. Nature designed us to eat them, although nature didn’t design them to be eaten by us. We are predators on top of it, the pinnacle of the parasite category. We’re parasites on the parasites. God still seems to love us however, for whatever reason. No one tells him what to do.
