Flour basically has insects in it too anyway (which is why supermarkets need to rotate flour every few months on the shelves, despite it being long life). I've tried cricket chips, mealworms and such before, and honestly, you don't even notice.. It's really just crunch

Nice. The legs make great toothpicks.
It's not the future we wanted, but it is the future we deserve
Dude, eating crickets, and not powdered crickets, but whole crickets, crunchy, carapace and all, is totally normal in many many cultures. I view all the people saying this is objectively bad no differently than people get all pissy about sushi. Don't want it? Fine, that's your preference, but don't put objective value judgements on things that aren't objective at all.
Lol what the duck are you on about? I'm from New Mexico, been eating chocolate crickets since I was a kiddo... I left reddit so I didn't have to put /s after every statement I made... Go home before you go extinct like your namesake
Sorry, but lemmy definitely still needs /s tags. Look at all the people in this thread that are non sarcastically talking about how disgusting this is and how people should just eat X instead.
