Would You Ever Eat Cicadas?

We eat shrimp, which are basically insects... "the closest classes in the phylum Arthropoda."

Lobster was considered to be disgusting and was fed to the poor and prisoners until the late 19th century. Same goes for salmon.

Bacon was considered "peasant food" and was mostly trash until 1961.

You only like what you've been told to like, and if Trump tells you to eat a cicada you'll eat a bowl full with a smile! You're a simple victim of mass marketing and propaganda.
