They're pretty much all meat? Bugs aren't empty. Chill out man

I'm not trying to convince anyone, I do think the double standards are pretty stupid. I never ate a tarantula but I'm sure its pretty meaty.

Also everyone uses gas lighting in different contexts so I think the word should be banned. I don't have a clue anymore what it is supposed to mean.

When I was in Cambodia, I saw street vendors frying up tarantulas, with lots of locals gathering around for snacks.

I'm not sure I'm ready to eat that, but they seemed to like it.
