Transcription:
Imagine you were transported to an alternate universe just like your own, except people occasionally ate spiders. You can’t convince anyone this is weird. [[Two figures stand. A woman is holding a big spider. The other figure looks shocked. There is another spider on the floor.]] Woman: Mmm… Figure: No! What are you doing!? This is how I feel about lobster.
{{Title text: As best as I can tell, I was transported here from Earth Prime sometime in the late 1990s. Your universe is identical in every way, except for the lobster thing and the thing where some of you occasionally change your clocks for some reason.}}

It wouldn’t be weird to land bugs if they had that tasty meat crustaceans do. I’m big for alternative sources of protein like bugs, but the fact is they taste like shit.
If there were 2lb spiders that taste like lobster roaming around on land I would sure as fuck be out in the woods with a net every weekend.
I have it on pretty good authority of the film Snowpiercer that bug bars are delicious.
agreed. ive had crickets at a local restaurant and once when i went to ecuador i had these giant roasted termites. both were well prepared and tasted good, but they also both (the termites in particular) had a bad texture and had pieces that just didn’t want to get swallowed. like if popcorn had 200% more kernel.
well obviously wet bugs are cleaner since they’re surrounded by water all the time
Sea bugs are delicious and have more meat than land bugs, I’ve eat crickets before and it’s 80% bones/ definitely not meat and 20% actual meat
You’ve eaten interesting crickets. Those that I know have no bones.
It’s not though. Bone is a fundamentally different material.
We knew what you meant, mind.
Shrimps is bugs
Ugh, I cannot tell if this makes me more or less interested, and I love shrimp.
When I think too much about it, eating any meat really does gross me out. I still do but occasionally get tempted to try going vegetarian or something. I’m just too damn lazy
