Kofi Annan: Eat Bugs To Stop Global Warming
The Daily Caller ^ | May 5, 2015 | by Michael Bastasch

Former United Nations Secretary-General Kofi Annan wants you to eat more insects. Why? It’s better for the environment and your health, he argues.

“Keeping meat consumption to levels recommended by health authorities would lower emissions and reduce heart disease, cancer, and other diseases,” Annan told The Guardian Sunday.

“And of course there are alternative sources of protein. For example, raising insects as an animal protein source,” Annan said. “Insects have a very good conversion rate from feed to meat. They make up part of the diet of two billion people and are commonly eaten in many parts of the world.”

My ancient ancestors did not fight their way up the food chain so that I could eat bugs.

I doubt he wants to eat bugs himself.

Everyone else, though, needs to eat bugs
so he can feel good about himself for
“caring about the erf”
while he has surf & turf.

If Kofi ate bugs, wouldn’t he be a cannibal?

“Keeping meat consumption to levels recommended by health authorities would lower emissions and reduce heart disease, cancer, and other diseases,” Annan told The Guardian Sunday.

In other words, "first world" countries are eating too much meat, which generates an unacceptable level of human (ahem) "methane emissions", thus causing global warming. Why doesn't UNESCO simply hand out these?

The UN rapes children, supports slavery,
and demands others eat insects.

And yet NO ONE in DC notices or cares.

It would be an economical alternative to hiring an exterminator.

In the 1970s a friend of mine couldn’t eat hamburgers from a certain chain because it made him nutty as a fruitcake.

Not just your average nutty but the biggest left wing fruitcake you ever met.

He described it as a mild acid trip.

Dear Kofi:

Stick an ice cube up your donkey. That will cool things down.

Love and kisses,
