Eating bug chitin long term is deadly. First manifests as inflamed airways and asthma onset. We'll probably see all kinds of law changes so you can't sue these global bug pushers.

Those are going to be the same problems anyone with a tropomyosin allergy has which is currently more commonly experienced by those eating shellfish since tropomyosin is conserved across arthropods. Doesn't stop people trying now, won't stop people trying then when it starts happening from entomophagy instead.

Not to mention sudden revisions in nutrition information guides. Suddenly chitin is akchewally good for you, conspiracy theorist

And hey look pfizer has a brand new drug to treat inflammation in the asophogous how about that

"And some say" is considered "weasel words" by Wikipedia and is considered bad form when writing objective and completely neutral articles.

It only requires the highest percentage of products by breakdown to be anything in that category to be considered "Primarily".

34% pet food, 33% human food, 33% human supplement vitamins? Primarily pet food.

I'm honestly surprised Tyson Foods hasn't already been doing this for years given how godawful their products usually taste.

Worth noting that it seems this is "primarily intended" for livestock, aquarium, and pet food. Probly just a stepping stone in the process though.

Yeah, well, CBDCs are "primarily intended" to make financial transactions faster and more streamlined and then suddenly cash is worthless and your bank accounts have a negative 10% interest rate and the government limits how much you can spend on real food.

Oh I'm aware, it doesn't make their intentions any less nefarious, but it does mean that they're not "quite" throwing that garbage on the open market in the next month or two.

Why are they investing in this in the first place?

Bugs are incredibly easy to breed and require minimal actual care before they are "consumption ready." On top of being fucking bugs, so the standards for "what is in my meat" are considerably laxer.

So while they will crow about sustainability, and their elite masters are doing it for humiliation and control, they themselves are just trying to feed you cheaper slop for the same prices.

Bugs are never, and never will be “consumption ready.”

"Our products already contain 10% insect product by volume without even trying. Why not bump that up to 50% and get free SocJus points while we're at it?"

I need a trained chicken to clean up the cockroaches around my house...

I'd fucking starve before I willingly eat an insect. No argument about taste or supposed health benefits will ever convince me to do so.

Stop buying their chicken. You know they're going to cheap out and process it in the same bug poop filled facilities.

And I'm pretty sure this is how the "Last of us" started out. We're going to start getting weird insect origin fungal diseases next.

Will these products need to be frozen? I ask because, if so, I intend to pick these up and leave them randomly in store aisles to unthaw and rot.

It seems like they're only using it in stuff like pet food, no? Though I wouldn't feed this shit to my pet either, do humans have anything to worry about?

They have to start somewhere and there's no way they aren't planning on forcing this on people in the future.
