Would you make a habit of eating insect protein?
« on: April 19, 2009, 10:14:18 AM »
Apparently insect protein is very high quality. But in the West we are naturally repulsed by insects. Would you eat a grub burger?

I'd drink donkey urine straight from the tap, if it could gain me a few more quality pounds.

Hell no. I hate most insects, if not all of them - last thing I want to do is eat one (or many) of the fcukers.

Everytime when I go on my bike I swallow a few insects on the way, raw, so yes.   ;D

If you eat shrimp, prawns, crabs, lobster etc you should have no problem with eating insects.

Many on here have made a habit of eating caucks to get their "straight from the tap" protein amount so I don't see the problem...
