Why do you keep making this thread? Almost the only time I see threads about bug eating is someone ironically creating a thread complaining about its exposure? Even if there is an agenda, what difference does it to make to you? Most people are manchildren like you that scoff at “icky bugs!!!” while preaching about healthy and sustainable eating

Bugs are cool. Bugs are hip. It's stylish to scarf down maggot sausages with your friends, hunched over with a feverish compulsion to eat more... and more..... and MORE.....

A couple generations ago, lobster was considered every bit as icky as maggots.
Autists like Randall to this day still can't stomach the thought of eating "sea bugs"

You know how when y'all were little y'all tried to trick other kids into eating bugs, or betting them to dare eat bugs? That was because it was funny to get people to do disgusting stuff. More imagine the Jews doing that on a global scale. They just want to get you to eat bugs to laugh at you, and the worst part, even get you to enjoy doing it.

They shill it because it's shocking. Nobody wants to eat bugs, they don't really expect people will suddenly start wanting to eat bugs, and for that reason it makes a compelling headline. Your grandparents and your parents and apparently fucking you cannot help but freak out when they hear the big bad science man say bugs are edible.

>> No.12808829

food and nutrition scientists discuss alternative sources of things like protein in the media because they think it's educational and it's their job to do research and experimentation on the subject.

the press make outlandish headlines about it because it makes people grossed out and angry and this draws attention to the publication which results in money.

Because it's much cheaper to produce. Don't get fooled into believing the "muh altruism" lies. They would sell you your own shit to eat at a 3000% markup if they could get away with it.
Just a reminder that world hunger can never be overcome as it is the limiting factor for human population, it doesn't matter if we can feed 10 billion people because those 10 billion people will shit out continuously more children until we're 100 billion people who we then also have to feed, who will keep reproducing until we're 1 trillion people, etc.
