Dig in Trekkies
âŚAnd then the humans start genetically modifying the crickets and other insects on Mars to make them bigger and juicier to eat and then they start eating humans and using their technology against themâŚlol

YepâŚboth crustaceans and insects are branched off from a common ancestor. Remember that next time you have your shrimp cocktail.
They are a bit crunchy. And with the easiest to catch oneâs being fossils, they need a geological pick axe to eat them. Plenty of minerals though.
The closest thing are Horseshoe crabs. They arenât true Trilobites (and theyâre not crabs either) but they are the Trilobiteâs closest relatives. Barely any meat though but people eat their roe.
Some of the foods on this thread really are a nightmare
Edited to add: but @Karim_Wassef might eat them
I was thinking more: just another good reason to avoid it.
Itâs so easy to see how they put these things together to say what they want to say. âLook itâs lower protein than beef, but lower fat, too! And it has Omega-3s and fiber!â I know wild salmon is a better source of Omega-3 oils than farmed salmon fed âfish chowâ, and wild sardines or other âlow on the food chainâ fish are better than grass finished beef, but how does that compare to the crickets?
Is the percentage of fat in crickets is high enough to prevent rabbit starvation? Iâd guess so without knowing real numbers.
I have this humorous idea of a whole philosophy that says the more lives lost when you eat something the more karmic juju you get from it. Cows: sad but minimal. Bugs: youâre going to hell, dude.
So this appears to be getting more serious:
