@Andrew-KY I had a local maker space with a blacksmithing area. was cool watching the guys, didn't get a chance to do it myself before the place shut down though. 😦

If you were expecting Richmond or something

So, "Beyond Meat" (fake plant-based meat) is starting to advertise here in the U.S. They're already pushing for insect-meat in Europe

@Asatru Artist - MD all you need is a yard, some coal from the farm supply store, and a trip to the junkyard

Sea farming when

The "globalists" are preparing for overpopulation in 3rd world nations, and they want US to give up eating meat

yeah i thought you might be further south than NoVA

Bugmeat is still meat is it not? Its also vastly more efficient

Ive even heard that crickets taste pretty good

@Nico The Great - CA did you see Cory Booker wants to tax the crap out of meat to (basically) force us into vegetarianism?

Bug protien is pretty high quality in theory but no large civilizatiom has lived on it so we dont really know.

@Asatru Artist - MD No, I didn't hear about that. But NOTHING, and I mean NOTHING, will keep me from my Trump steaks!!!

@Andrew-KY Maybe covered in chocolate...

Crickets taste like dogfood.

Nah, just sauteed. Supposed to be crisp and nutty

eww

I call shenanigans on bug protein because they are probably counting chitin as protein which isn't really usable

I will NEVER eat bugs, and my children will NEVER eat them either

You ever eaten crab or lobster?

Well, you ate a bug lol

uh not really

@Andrew-KY Nah man, I knew where you were going with that. It's not same

Ive eaten crickets and dogfood and crickets taste like dogfood.

A lobster is a noble crustacean

I am an American, I will not eat bugs like a savage just because the 3rd world can't keep themselves in check

I like Snails.

They are just sea bugs. Exoskeleton, 6 legs, antennae, primitive behavior, bottom feeding, etc.

I'm not eating a cricket or a roach fam

Butter and garlic 😋

@Papa Pizzagate Ewwww

People who are allergic to shellfish are allergic to bug meat

I mean by scientific definition they are not in a family of insects though

Only because they breathe water

Sea farming is answer to food problems
