Thank you Schecter. I didn't know how to do that. But I guess this makes it a little easier for people to see the movie. smile

Poor insects... why should we kill them for food, when we already have the infrastructure to process cattle, chickens, pigs and sheep.

FeceMan
I would be willing to try some of that stuff.

Because it costs a tenth produce a pound of caterpillars then it does a pound of beef.

And I've acctually tried mealworms. They're crunchy and not too bad. Mine were bbq flavored. smile

Prime rib, burgers and skirt steaks... oh my!

No wonder the "White man" took your lands.

Hey, with modern technology we can take the bugs and press/shape them into steaks and the like. And hey man, we had VENISON and BUFFALO and all sorts of other foods.

So take that you burnt bastard wink

well, many of us have eaten arthropods. if we can drool over giant bugs, may as well try out the little ones.

Naa... it's a common fact that the polution in the oceans, lakes and streams add that special taste, no roach could compare

Yeah, I feed meal worms to the box turtles at work, and I will not be reduced to eating the same thing as them.

I don't know... I guess a craka-wop-spick (in no particular order).

Onitsu
ok so your caucazoid? But you know, cracka shouldnt be too offensive, I thought it ment like a cracker and well...saltines are pretty pale. oh...and what's a wop?

So if cracka's are white people can black people be chocolatay and caramel colored peeps be carmies and asians be butters and red skins be tomata's?

"Cracker" was originally used as a shortened form of "whip-cracker," a reference to the sound made when plantation owners would, well, crack their whips.

I'm not sure if it means "saltine" now. I'd rather be a Ritz, to be honest.
