What a joke. It’s disgusting and pathetic how many once reputable science oriented organizations have sold out to the communist climate kooks.

Do they really believe this shiat, or are they just whores for sale?

"Snake is different than bugs. I have had alligator. I would not object to snake."

I bet that you would if you were at a table forced to eat snake while your "betters" ate steak and lectured you that your suffering is saving Gia.

“...a billion people in Southeast and East Asia, as well as parts of Latin America and Africa, already consider snake meat a culturally acceptable food.”

Being determined culturally acceptable with people that are starving to death and forced to eat things to stay alive is not what I would call acceptable.

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC7360430/

I went through this site and I couldn’t find snake anywhere. So it leads me to believe if it is consumed, it would be by those that have to eat it and not part of their traditional diet if they can afford not to.

So much for someone trying to BS people. IO jhaven’t had pythin, but I’ve had fried rattlesnake. I wouldn’t like a steady diet of it.

Used to kill them and bring them to cook and eat, I think it was Apache, back in the early 70’s late 60’s while I was stationed at Fort Sam

I do not want spiders and snakes or bugs.

We just want the food that has always been people food and the climate hoax be damned.

I tried fried rattlesnake once at the San Patricio Rattlesnake Roundup.

It tasted okay. Not much meat. You definitely you gotta watch for the bones!

I have eaten rattlesnakes, copperheads, and pythons and all taste rather bland (yes, like chicken). The only problem I have is that it is expensive in the restaurants and since it is bland there is nothing that makes me want to pay the premium. I kill a copperhead about every two years, but my wife refuses to cook them.

Way back when dinosaurs roamed the earth, Scientific American was actually scientific.

Now it should be called: Scientific Globalist or Scientific UnAmerican... 🤓

The crossover point was Reagan deploying Pershing missiles in Europe. SciAm had article after article claiming it would cause WWIII. After that there was always a “soft science (i.e., political science, sociology, etc) article in every monthly issue. That’s when I stopped subscribing.
