Just last year there was a dystopian conspiracy theory about governments forcing enslaved people to eat bugs. But these scary narratives couldn’t be further from the truth: “They're fine for snacking, but insect protein has its greatest potential as nutrient rich, climate-friendly livestock feed,” as Amanda Little has previously explained. By making animal food out of fly larvae and mealworms, poultry and livestock meat should become much more affordable for human consumption.

Sure, sure, until it is decided that poultry and livestock are super duper bad for the planet, and need to be regulated into near annihilation, and would you look at that? A complete supply chain of insect based food products.

These fucking people.
