Sea bugs are delicious and have more meat than land bugs, I've eat crickets before and it's 80% bones/ definitely not meat and 20% actual meat
You’ve eaten interesting crickets. Those that I know have no bones.
Exoskeleton is still a form of bone, I use bone because it's shorter
It's not though. Bone is a fundamentally different material.
We knew what you meant, mind.
The bones of my house are also fundamentally different material to human bones. Not really sure what point I'm trying to make here but there you go
Is your house a 15th century gothic chapel?
Not really... but yeah there was no question that's what tou meant, in my mind at least.
You're thinking of in bones. Crickets have out bones.
Snail is a "bug" and it's 100% meat.
And you have escargot for just that. Guess I'm missing your point.
Snails are more in the same category as squids and octopuses, and I know people who won't eat those because they're 'gross'
Agreed. I've had chocolate covered crickets and candy bugs and stuff because I travel (military; not rich) and like eating new and interesting things. The best you can do is cover up the taste and texture. Neither are palatable.
