I bought a bag of mixed bugs to try and I like them. Insects are apparently quite healthy to eat and are a very green protein to produce. The taste vaguely reminds of beef liver with a very earthy tone. Only thing is that the price is high, at least what I found on Amazon, despite being very cheap to produce, not sure why.

No, it's a good source of fiber. If it would "wreck you", there wouldn't be a couple billion people that regularly eat insects. 

>>267201
Idk, people have been eating insects since "the prehistoric days". I have no problem trying many kinds of food and I eat a lot of stuff that other people won't, like organ meats. As long as something is healthy, I don't mind eating it. I guess they're really wrapped up in the muh globohomo eat da bugs aspect of it. It's just another source of protein and a quality one at that.

That guy isn't OP; I'm OP. I don't see how eating bugs is a matter of living like a caveman. Again, it's just another form of protein and it's a nutritious one at that. I just don't understand the sensitivity on the subject.

bad faith argument. bugs taste like garbage, which is why very few people eat then even in the regions where it's "normal" and bug industry is small potatoes even when compared to the vegan industry. it hasn't been proven to be good for the environment or even feasible. it's just what some sociopathic kikes (redundant) like to say because they find sexual thrill in making gentiles' lives more miserable.

No, it's just a matter of preference. 

>bugs taste like garbage
No, they taste vaguely like earthy beef liver.

2 billion people is not "very few", nor is the long history of entomophagy. 

>and bug industry is small potatoes even when compared to the vegan industry.
Because there's a much bigger stigma for bugs and vegan is about not eating animals, of which insects are, so that doesn't even make sense - apples and oranges. 

>it hasn't been proven to be good for the environment or even feasible. 

This is wrong:
https://onlineentomology.ifas.ufl.edu/3-benefits-of-eating-insects-entomophagy-as-sustainable-nutrition/

>Insects generally boast a higher proportion of consumable body mass than farm animals. For example, up to 80% of a cricket is edible to humans. In contrast, farm animals offer a lower amount of available meat for consumption, with pigs providing only 55% edibility. 

>Insects require significantly less space and water to develop and cultivate than their farm animal counterparts. If more people partook in entomophagy, there would be a considerably lower amount of deforestation due to less land being needed to farm the insects. 

>Properly raising farm animals for food purposes requires a significant outlay of crops. The production of these crops involves clearing more woodland areas and using pesticides

It's a nutrient-dense animal that is more environmentally efficient to produce. 

>it's just what some sociopathic kikes (redundant) like to say because they find sexual thrill in making gentiles' lives more miserable.
Blackpilled nonsense. Again, entomophagy stretches back the entirety of human history and is a common food for many people. It's been co-opted because it is factually a more environmentally efficient protein source. Yes, globohomo says eating bugs are good. Broken clocks are sometimes right and people knew insects were good for you long before they ever came to power. It's just not common in the West.

>duhh duhh 2 biwwion ppl eat bugs
1. shitskins arent people
2. you might want to check the global population total again.
i'm guessing that number isn't even "people" who regularly eat bugs, rather those who have eaten them once in their lives. click random food travel vlogs and see how plenty of locals turn their nose up at the proposition to eat bugs.
>apples and oranges
no it's not, fucking retard. the point was even vegans control a much larger market share of the food industry than bugs because nobody wants to eat bugs, not only vegans.
>hurr smaller animal take less resources
no shit sherlock, but you also have to raise much more of them to compensate. i'm sure a website ran by insect nerds is unbiased when it makes claims about how eco-friendly bug husbandry is. either way, the bug industry is so tiny that it really hasn't been proven no matter how many ((( edu ))) articles you link say so.

Isn't real and you're just desperately grasping at straws. Hitting the space bar is not an argument in itself, good grief. What you just did was a bad faith argument. 

>spoken like a true retard. dip them in glue while you're at it nigger.
Uh, I like the taste and I've only tried them plain. There are other ways of preparing them. Celery doesn't taste "good", but I eat it, anyway. Are you some kind of fat lord who only guzzles Mountain Dew and eats shit that makes your dopamine pop? You sound like it. 

>1. shitskins arent people
Muh shitskins. So if shitskins breathe air, I guess you shouldn't breathe, right? Are the Japanese shitskins/subhumans like you're trying to claim? Because they have insect recipes in their culture, as do the Chinese and Koreans. Funny how you throw around "bad faith argument" when that's what you're doing.

>More than 2 billion people regularly eat insects

>You’ll find the practice more common in countries closer to the equator. Globally, beetles are the most common insects to be consumed, followed by butterflies and moths. People usually go for the larvae, because they’re soft protein bags of goo, or the pupae, a form in between larva and the adult stage.

>There are geographic patterns that determine which insects are the most commonly eaten. Caterpillars are super popular in sub-Saharan Africa. You’ll find ants, wasps, and bees are most common in Latin America, where they’re very abundant. In Colombia, they roast ants and make flour from them. People collect ant larvae from agave fruits and put them in burritos or garlic sauce.

>no it's not, fucking retard.
You shouldn't be speaking on intelligence because it is the epitome of apples and oranges. Is a cricket in the same category as a carrot? You're only insulting your own intelligence the more you type. 

>the point was even vegans control a much larger market share of the food industry than bugs because nobody wants to eat bugs, not only vegans.
Speaking of insulting your own intelligence, again, vegans don't believe in eating animals....which insects are. This is some kind of dumb argument where you're trying to conflate popularity with legitimacy, which is a fallacy. 

>no shit sherlock
You've gone from denial to admission, haha. 

>but you also have to raise much more of them to compensate.
Presumably, insects are their to supplement the average diet, not dominate it. So, you're getting nutrient dense protein at a lower cost, in addition to what you're already eating. So, let's say instead of eating pork rinds for a crunchy snack, which has a higher environmental cost than insects, you eat the insects, which lowers demand for pork production, creating environmental savings. 

> i'm sure a website ran by insect nerds is unbiased when it makes claims about how eco-friendly bug husbandry is. either way, the bug industry is so tiny that it really hasn't been proven no matter how many (((  edu  ))) articles you link say so.
It's common sense. Smaller animals require smaller requirements to farm. The research only validates that painfully obvious truth. What needs more food to feed, a cow or a gerbil? Which one needs more space to roam? Your level of self-own is embarrassing.
why am i not surprised some tedious retard who pushes gay buttsex as traditional is unironically advocating to eat bugs.
>wont eat bugs huh? u must eat junk food then heh
yep, those are the only two choices. what a brainless line of argument.
>hurr a minority of orientals eat bugs see??? now u have to as well!!!
if you think the majority of the population in any of those countries eats bugs, you have even less clue as to what you are talking about than i previously thought
>>More than 2 billion people regularly eat insects
<posted without further elaboration
moron.
>You're only insulting your own intelligence the more you type
not my problem the assworms prevent you from understanding bugs would possess a bigger market share if anyone actually wanted to eat them.
>What needs more food to feed, a cow or a gerbil?
you're the only one it needed to be explained to, which is why i said no shit. snide faggot.
>you eat the insects, which lowers demand for pork production, creating environmental savings
nothing indicates there will be "environmental savings" (gay term) when replacing pork production with an equivalent volume of bug production.

Sometimes I go to the meadow and see crickets jumping in the grass. I like the noises crickets make, it's much nicer than highway and airplane noises. The crickets jump away when I approach them. They're the opposite of ticks and mosquitoes which are attracted to me. Despite their shyness, I've managed to hold them in my hand. I've never eaten one, however. It's amazing that grass is able to provide the protein to sustain insect populations.
