I really don't get what the fuss over eating insects is all about, especially if they're ground into a fine powder. It's just another dead animal to eat.

I don't know where you live, but here in France all the conspiracy theory folks have got the idea into their heads that they are already sneaking insects into our food. It is all part of the larger conspiracy theory that the government and the elite are going to impose a meat allowance, which will make the lower classes weaker and more prone to disease and blah blah blah. I don't know any more


my MIL is in deep though, she is a bit of an ultra-conservative type who thinks vaccines make you magnetic.

Moving on...

There is one minor issue, and that is that some people who are allergic to shellfish can have allergies to some insects.

Yes, the lower classes don't deserve heart disease, and only the overlords can experience the pinnacle of health that is the fatty liver! Our plans are coming together wonderfully, mwahahaha!
