      Absolutely, all part of the WEF plan and UN agenda
      meanwhile they will fly around in private jets , have several multimillion mansions and tour around on their 100 million dollar yachts eating steak and lobster
      meanwhile the peasants will eat bugs , force to have tiny EV’s and live in 15 minute cities and own nothing
      it’s all been laid out, was never a conspiracy
      And Canada just elected one of the leaders of this vision

        Did you ever squash a cricket? Very appetizing for a Liberal - probably.

          Every time I hear cows are bad for the environment I joke I’m buying a cricket ranch, cricket ranching might not be all it’s cracked up to be….

              They grind them to a dry powder and use them in snack food for protein.
              Drinks too
              Same market as pea protein from the fractionation plants.

              You may already have eaten them .

                Nothing new. Was buying something off Kijiji a few years ago met the person in their shop, he mentioned that the shop had been converted from a cricket barn many years before. Apparently it wasn't a profitable business back then either.
                I believe the market was pet food for the lizards etc.

                    I would love a cricket plant nearby...
                    There is a bakery in edmonton that had a small cricket barn somewhere off site.. they put some cricket flour in the baking.. i bought some and couldnt tell the diff. Alot of cultures eat bugs so i wont judge if anyone does. Anyone ver been to street markets in southeast asia? Its shocking..

                    The coolest part about a crickeg farm is FRASS and its use in plant growth. It can be applied to the crop and essentially the crop thinks its getting attacked by bugs.. triggers a response that toughens up the plants!
                    quite an amazing thing.

                    In other news. The giant hemp processing factory by bruderheim died... so that sucks.

                    Why are all these " value add" companies never able to get going properly?
