I really need an explanation on this since people are not shutting up for months that EU is apparently putting insects in food for the people to be forced to buy and feed on like survivalists in jungle would? I know that EU is completely unhinged nazi hellhole and whatnot, but to this extent to feed themselves on bugs? I don't think so.

Can somebody please tell me about this, they are not shutting up about it on social media for months?!

From what I can tell insects are sometimes looked at as an alternative to meat. It's nutritious and is far less damaging to the environment. I don't think it's a weird thing to do, apart from ignoring various plant based meat alternatives.

Now, you have some weird people out there, claiming we should all eat bugs or purposely sending pictures of whole grasshoppers for people to eat. I think that's partly to blame by the meat lobby or just some racist bullshit about Africans eating bugs.

I don't think bug burgers are going to win against plant based ones or lab grown meat if it ever gets that far. Not that I have to worry about that, I don't eat meat in the first place.

Wait, the "other cultures eat bugs" thing is a racist stereotype?
