Cockroach milk: The superfood of the future is now

[Jabulani22]

If you clever scientists had read the article, you would see it is a time-released food sequenced from the same protein crystals that was sourced from the Pacific Beetle Cockroach. This insect's offspring are born live, hence the milk

No insects were harmed during this experiment

Yeah those learned guys can give it to the places that are offending , rest of us with responsible broods can eat wagyu beefs .

How do you decide who gets roach and who gets waygu given that you're going with broad brush strokes. I mean if all they deliver to your continent is roach that's what you end up munching all because some idiot couldn't think beyond myopic generalisations.

On the flip side, the redneck with 10 kids at 21 gets waygu too because he just so happens to be on the right continent.

Snowies can enjoy their cockroach milk and roaches themselves. I'll stick to normal cow milk and meat.

If it doesn't make you sick, it's edible. Think of what our ancestors used to eat before the arrival of processed food.

Meat.

Cockroaches dont have nipples, they not mammals.

But you can make milk out of almonds so....you grind them up and mix with water? They are white when you squish them and remove the carapace.

no way I'm eating cockroach.

Could I interest you in a platter of grilled crayfish / lobster or prawns, madame?

Must admit we're on the same wave length here. Rather oysters or, under duress, snails.

Not the same dearest. Crayfish etc. are crustaceans while cockroaches are insectovora. Sure both are arthropods, but that is as close as it gets.

Now hand me the prawns!

How dare you kill my joke with actual facts...
Facts... they have no power here.

apparently insects are the food of the future.
one advantage they have over mammals and birds is there are millions of them.

so ants, temites, grasshopers, roaches, aphids
all could be on the menu in the future.

seems what they showed in Blade Runner 2049 is coming true.

Prole diet.

Insects are the future of nutrition. Plenty, cheap and full of protein.

Prawns and crayfish are actually the cockroaches of the sea. They eat all the dead junk at the bottom.

That said, I do love them. Maybe that's where the flavour comes from.

once sustenance enters the body, it does not care what its origins/regulatory grading/culinary sophistication or religious compliance is... it does what nature intended it to always do...break it down into components that the body can use in its aim to maintain homeostasis.

calling them cockroaches doesn't biologically make them cockroaches

Still not having any of this, thanks.
What's next... they will make us drink animal pee because water is scarce...
