On a personal level: are you down for it?

On a social level: should we push it for environmental reasons?

    Are they even especially good at producing protein?

    Oh yeah, I mean, I can get a pound of meat a day out of a bucket filled with Black Soldier Fly larvae. Think how much more compact that is than if I were farming cattle.

      Yeah I figured they would be better than traditional meat sources of protein. But what about compared to high-protein plants, mycoprotein farming, or engineered yeasts and bacteria? Oh and also do chitin or other things interfere at all?
