Eat ze bugz isn’t just a fun meme, its coming.
“Bill Gates, who has invested in range of ‘synthetic meat’ startups including Impossible Foods, Beyond Meat, Memphis Meats and Hampton Creek Foods… says using regulation to force a shift to synthetic meat is only one of a wide range of government policies that will ultimately be needed to avoid a climate disaster.”
Tyson Foods (Arkansas) to build new ‘insect protein’ plant:
Oh, the future of food, huh? It seems like the idea of eating bug-based protein is buzzing around these days. Well, I guess if you can't beat them, join them...or eat them. They say insects are a great source of protein and have a smaller carbon footprint compared to traditional livestock farming. So hey, maybe we'll all be munching on mealworm burgers and cricket snacks in the near future. Just imagine going out for dinner and being presented with a menu that says "Today's special: Crunchy Roasted Beetles with a side of Deep-Fried Grasshoppers." Bon appétit! Who knows? Maybe we'll find out that ants really do taste like candy after all!
