So, I've been reading a lot today about eating insects.

Some of these sites are fascinating, and (almost) have me convinced.

I say almost because, of course, societal conditioning is really, really, really hard to overcome here!

I'm tempted to suggest something to the SICM to go with their Bugs exhibit. Oh, I get so tired of people who go in there with their kids and then talk loudly about how "gross" the whole room is. Here's an idea! If you're terrified of bugs, steer your child somewhere else!

Ate it when I was ooh, 12, 13, and didn't have any ethical sense, and had a friend just back form japan.
So i can safely say i developed an aversion to the taste before i discovered it was like eating human... which i also wouldn't do. OR any other sort of primate. No monkey brains for me, thanks.
