I don't want to, and I don't want the government to push it as an alternative to meat knowing full well every member of congress and CEO will continue eating steak as usual while laughing at all the poors they swindled into eating crickets.

Bugs are actually a much healthier source of protein and amino acids than red meat. The poor would end up living longer lives than the rich.

Maybe we all should be peasants too because working on a field for a lord is healthy?

Or maybe you should stop acting like eating bugs makes you poor just because it’s affordable.

Or maybe you should stop acting like bug vegan and try to convince people to eat something with eyes made up of thousand hexagons.

So you’re going to tell me that you’re fine with eating the tongue of an animal that sucks up bacteria for breakfast completely raw, but eating a few crickets is too far

I don't eat lobster's head and flagellums? You literally eat only their meat. Also, bacteria is everywhere. My gut is filled with it.

eating a few crickets is too far

People don't like to eat crawly, small, skittish, fast and alien looking creatures, with their exoskeleton no less. Such a bizzare concept.
