minus-squareCount Regal Inkwelllinkfedilink3•20 days ago Eating bugs. Unless they’re wet bugs. Then it’s fine dining. /s Seriously, people retch at the idea of chomping down on a cricket, a “clean” bug, but then get all excited about eating shrimp, which is like a sea Cockroach.
minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink7•20 days agoI guess it depends on how you define human, and bugs. Insects have been, and continue to be, part of the homo sapien diet for millennia. However, there’s a pretty strong argument that choosing to cause less suffering by not eating animals is a more human approach.

That’s not a human behavior imo

I think intent would count for a lot here.
