OTTAWA – The Conservative Party of Canada has officially announced that in addition to walkable cities, vaccines, and transgender children, they are also deeply afraid of eating bugs.
“We WON’T Eat Bugs,” the CPC said in an online petition it posted this week. “No one is asking us to, but we’re so scared someone might, and it could be Justin Trudeau. And that makes us furious and so very frightened of this version of Justin Trudeau that we made up who is making us eat bugs.”
Oh shit new moral panic just dropped!
I was expecting it to be the clip from Paul Joseph Watson ‘I will not eat the bugs’ that made the rounds a few years ago.
Holy moly, it’s real.
What’s it called when you eat the onion but turns out it actually is real?
This fucking timeline
Not the onion?
Normally yes, but the OP actually is an onion article.

The way I see it, it’d be similar to how ostrich eggs are sold in Canada and a lot of other places worldwide as a kind of novelty food, but most people just eat chicken eggs anyways.
From this article
Ashour said 10 per cent of the product is sold for human consumption. The rest is sold to the pet food industry.
“It’s quite remarkable how normal insect consumption can be in some of these countries,” Ashour said.

I tried eating bugs, it’s not bad. Aside from lobster and shrimp I mean, grasshoppers aren’t that bad.
Silkworm pupae (Beondegi in Korean) are pretty good too.
I would try it, looks interesting. The canned stuff though… Ugh
The boiled or steamed snack food is served in paper cups with toothpick skewers. Its aroma has been described as “nutty, shrimp-like, and a bit like canned corn” and the canned-type smells very much “like tire rubber”, while the texture is firm and chewy.

Edit: are those just the ‘de-silked’ pupae from the silk industry?
The pupa stage is a motionless stage. In this stage, people kill the pupa by plunging the cocoon into boiling water and unwind the silk thread.

So yes, it looks like this is the leftover insect after the silk is removed
Even better, thanks!
