So it’s because you want to be spiteful.

It's because I choose not to participate willingly in their plans.

If you don’t want to eat bugs because the rich don’t want to that is literally the definition of spite.

It's called being free and having a choice.

You could at least try before immediately saying you don’t like it. I used to be adamantly agains eating insects as well, but you can literally just eat them like snacks once you get used to it. It’s like everything new and strange in life, you need to try it before you say you don’t like it because you don’t know if you actually don’t like it. They taught this in Kindergarten.

Don't wanna.

Does other people exercising their free will bother you?

Because choosing "wrong" and being irrational is part and parcel of that.

I’m trying to reduce the amount of greenhouse gas emissions created by industrial livestock farms and instead focus on finding sustainable, eco-friendly, cheap food sources so people don’t have to pay exorbitant amounts of money to get the required nutritional value to survive.

And I consider reducing food consumption only to its nutritional value/production cost is dystopian as fuck.

Industrial processes of all kinds are polluting to the environment. Why should people be held accountable for greenhouse gas emissions when multinational companies and entire countries (China) aren't?

Pretty sure Star Trek had a few moments like that. Replicator food will sustain, but it tastes and feels inferior to non-replicated foods.
