Idk if it’s an unpopular opinion here, but I’m totally cool with bugs as protein. I actually ate a roach that was raised in a clean environment and fed nothing but apples. It wasn’t bad, actually kinda good. Tasted vaguely of apple to boot.
I’m cool with it. I fuckin hate roaches, but that aside, I think people misrepresent the concept for their own goals. The point isn’t to eat bugs for protein (even if humans have at various points in history as a cultural norm). The point is modern meat production is killing us, and we should find other ways to supplement our nutritional intake. But the same people who bitch about vegans not getting the right macros or whatever also shit on bugs, so

Entomophagy isn’t even uncommon, globally speaking. And I can vouch for chapulines and escamoles being tasty. I’d happily try more invertebrate foods.
