      And they require far far less water and feed to make the same amount of calories and protein as cattle. They're like over 100x more efficient to cultivate.

              I feel like the hardest part is additives or stabilizers and stuff like that. Like how most wine isn't technically vegan. Or small amounts of gelatin in things. Or cane sugar processed over animal bones. Egg is used in so many things because the proteins have remarkable properties. And so on.

              My personal feeling is that worrying about vegan wine is a bridge we can cross when other stuff has been dealt with, but I respect people who have a harder line on that.

                :think-mark: On the other hand those are probably some the easiest things to make out of bugs

          That is a very controversial take indeed (non-vegan take, even?)

      They are all over south east Asia

      I've eaten some. By them selves they are not that great. Way to dry and crunchy
