I can understand your point, thanks for elaborating. It´s true what you say, lots of food goes to waste.
I think I just saw it like an option. Since I live in a Western country where I never had to go hungry before, eating bugs as an alternative to meat was what I had in mind. Having a low-impact source of nutrition instead of meat is great.
But when looking at the massive amount of waste that gets produced, eating bugs should indeed have a really low priority. There are a lot of things that should be fixed before bugs should be an option. Food security is the number one priority.
Fair enough. I ate some worms once and it was okay-ish. But I eat plant based and I manage just fine while doing so. So I don’t have the urge to eat bugs either, really.

Exactly. How i see that, the food supply would have to really dwindle for that, which means capitalism in the terminal stage (of Earth).

I’ll go vegan before I eat bugs
