i want to get my fronts replaced with baleen so i can just cruise around gulping on seawater and pushing it out to get at that krill. just all day, filtering and swallowing that krill. you know what they say, 100% krill diet = 100% chill diet.
on holidays like chrimbus or w/e i would get some cocktail sauce in a squirt bottle.
100% krill diet = 100% chill diet.
Turning this into a bumper sticker
I love beans so much, dude. I live in the south, and black eyed peas and rice are a staple, but I've just discovered the joys of Lima Beans and rice......omg, delicious.
That scene in Snowpiercer where he gags after finding out what the protein bars are made of but instead of bugs it’s beans
That scene is supposed to have the protein bars made of poop form the bourgeoisie cars but it was changed by the films financer Harvey Weinstein.
Don't wanna eat the bugs? No problem! Go vegan and take the beanpill :bean:.
Lay off the corn syrup too, and enjoy water.
Oysters are an interesting case.
Oyster farming is usually super sustainable and actually improves the water quality. Furthermore, Oysters do not have a central nervous system so it is unlikely that they feel pain. However, I don't eat oysters because the keyword is unlikely and I want to eat as low on the food chain as I can because toxins are more concentrated the higher you go.
its okay to eat fish cos they don't have any feelings
Male boomers are a lot like tofu, it really depends on the seasoning.
real talk: bugs are delicious and big meat is afraid of you eating bugs
i eat bugs. grasshoppers taste like shrimp and all these motherfuckers are asking you to destroy nautical environments 3 miles underwater to get them when i can crawl around on my belly eating grasshoppers at the local park
grilled locusts are to die for. i had em, theyre amazing.

Good news, you're turning into a cat :meow-bounce:
don't most bugs not have any meat though? I'd imagine the reason people eat crustaceans is for the meaty texture/taste
I know tarantulas are meaty and taste good, but I feel like it might be pretty tough to farm tarantulas as opposed to crickets.
afaik they force grasshoppers to swarm so they get bigger then they sell them for cooking
I did like the crab
Wait till they find out crabs are basically sea spiders lol
Honestly anything to get people to stop eating any kind of non farmed sea life is probably good tho
Shrimp and crawfish are some of the easiest sea creatures to farm, tho.
Hell crawfish are practically an unintended consequence of rice farming.
Most non-industrial rice farmers are very deliberate about getting good fish yields. I wouldn't call it un-intended, give paleolithic farmers some credit.
Sure, sure. But at some level, you're going to have crawfish whether you want them or not. In the same way that growing corn and wheat gets you mice and cicadas.
Since they're functionally a cash crop in their own right, the cultivation becomes deliberate. But you're going to have to work incredibly hard to keep crawfish out of a Louisiana rice paddy.
lol, here my ass wishing that I lived somewhere that sold bugs that I could eat. It sounds fun lol. Like whats wrong with eating bugs man. Also redefining Crustacean as bug lol. How do they feel about catfish being bottom feeders and all?
I've had fried scorpion and dried and seasoned crickets. Both were delicious.
Is that really how kosher started? Trying not to be cucked?
no I think what happened is that if you were eating shellfish in a desert before preservatives were invented you'd get sick
@ides_of_Merch, the floor is yours to respond to this very shell-fish rumor :abby-exasperation:
"You IDIOTS! Don't you get it!? The Jews WANT you to eat non-kosher food!"
Also, what's with the "I will not eat the bugs" crowd? Nothing wrong with simply telling people normalizing austerity to go suck a chode, but these are the same people who cheer on austerity. They are the same people that see the housing crisis as a good thing because of high property values, these are the same people that are okay with a nihilistic quest for "muh shareholder valyoo!".
They turn down minimum wage hikes all the time for the sake of "muh honor", they love austerity. Why would they be against it in THIS instance?
Basically there's this one mad scientist guy that works with the UN and WEF ( Klaus Schwab I think is his name) that allegedly says wack shit like "eating bugs makes people smaller so they pollute less" and "we'll infect people with the Lonestar tick virus to make them allergic to meat so they have to eat bugs!".
This has really freaked the chuds out agenda 21/great reset style. So now they won't eat the bugs or something.
To be fair, they are freaked out for good reason. What the actual fuck, Kraus?
To be fair I think the stuff is quoted out of context or outright fake (it is chuds suppling the information we're talking about here)
But honestly the problem with eating bugs realistically is parasites and viruses. Crickets are fucking gross, everyone who's worked with them knows that.
I mean when I worked for a pet store I had to farm the things for the chameleons and tarantulas and all their owners. They stank and would eat each other, even when there was plenty of food. Crickets are solitary animals in the wild so raising a bunch of them in a container is very much not good.
That sounds horrifying. A tank full of chittering chitin…..:rust-darkness:
Isn't that true of most aquatic life too, though? I've never worked with crickets but I've treated more fish for parasites than I can count. It seems like there ought to be a way to treat the livestock for these things in some sort of bug farm setting.
Treating the insects might be possible, but the parasitic infections they can get are really wild. In captivity, they already resort to eating each other, witch is the perfect breeding ground for parasites.
Then there's the hairworm parasite, witch is present in tonnes of insects. Ever stepped on a bug, and seen a long "string" come out? That's a hairworm parasite. They cause crickets to eat each other even more and become suicidal in terms of jumping into water. So whenever you put them in the enclosure of a tarantula, or reptile to feed them they'd dash to the water bowl and dive in.
Maybe it's because eating bugs has been coded as "woke" or maybe it is because their love for austerity is overshadowed by their disdain for any notion that humans can and should subside on anything but a diet made up of 100% epic bacon.
