Insect protein is a solution in search of a problem. I guess if I had to I’d eat bugs, but I can get all the protein I need from plants.
Cool topic, but is this content really related to veganism?
It’s still consuming animals, although most people argue bugs are a lot less ethically troublesome
I’d argue it’s potentially the most ethically bad form of animal exploitation there is, due to the “small body problem”. It holds far more sentient (yes, insects are sentient and some are seemingly quite intelligent) victims than other forms of animal exploitation/farming. There’s a vegan activist who focuses on this topic, his name is Dre and his Instagram is @banbugfarms
It’s about the environmentalists arguments. If you don’t want to engage in those, don’t.
In general, it’s good to know your enemy.
