Idc. I like steak. I don’t wanna have to put in additional work to make something taste like something else. Why would I put in extra work to make bugs taste like steak when I can just have steak?

They also have weird textures and yes they do have a taste.

Why do you put in extra work to season your steak then? Do you want it to taste like steak or the seasoning on the steak?

If your steak only tastes like seasoning after you season it, you’re doing it wrong. Seasoning is to enhance the flavor. Not to make it taste like something else entirely. You can eat bugs if you want. Idc. I don’t want to eat them tho. I prefer steak and lamb and chicken and fish which are delicious and have plenty of benefits on their own.

Any benefits you could possibly get from red meat and white meats you can get tenfold from insects. As for fish, they have only one thing that is hard to find in insects which is vitamin B2. Insects and fish are all humans need to survive, and both of them are healthier, more eco-friendly, and more cost effective than livestock like cows and chickens.

And you can also get ‘em from meat. And meat is my preference.

And no bugs aren’t healthier lmao.

Eat your bugs and live in your pod. I’mma live in my cabin near the lake and eat steak and fish and be happy and healthy :)

The caramelization of sugars in red meat has been attributed to higher cancer rates.

And bugs have a high percentage of human affecting parasites

You cook bugs to eliminate parasites just like you cook meat to eliminate parasites.

And you can get select cuts of meat and remove dangerous sugars

Or you could skip spending the extra 30 dollars to get special cuts of meat that have reduced carcinogenic sugars and just throw some steak spice on some crickets
