 January 10, 2011 - 6:07pm | Ran across this: http://news.mongabay.com/2011/0109-morgan_insect_meat.html Makes me think a little more about food on the Frontier. Long live the Frontier! |
 January 10, 2011 - 6:33pm | Yummyyyy!!! I'll take a slab of c0ckroach with a side of termites. Though chances are, they'll probably stick to more kosher foods like locusts. I don't see roach meat becoming a popular diet. View my profile for a list of articles I have written, am writing, will write. "It's yo' mama!" —Wicket W. Warrick, Star Wars Ep.

January 10, 2011 - 7:49pm | Of course, I also found it intriguing about the in vitro meat. That sounds right for SF, even more than bug farms. Long live the Frontier! |
 January 10, 2011 - 7:53pm | We here at "Bug on a Bun" cater to the Vrusk on the go. so If you've got 5 minutes to spare before your next corporate meeting why not stop in for a quick bite, and remember we serve Humma too.

If I want to mainline Crisco, it's my right to do so. Take your bug goo, tofu-eating self back to Berkeley... "Yea, gimme some deep-fried pork fat with banana sauce and chocolate chips.."

 January 11, 2011 - 9:15am | Having eaten bugs, I'm pretty sure this wont take off. As for SF invitro meat and bug farming is a good idea. Come to think of it I already introduced the idea of the Cryxian Roach being popular with humma- perhaps the natural toxins in the roach overcome the humma's dull sense of taste and they find them tangy. I might not be a dralasite, vrusk or yazirian but I do play one in Star Frontiers! |
 January 11, 2011 - 6:07pm | Does anyone know how many cockroaches it takes to make a burger? No, but I do know how many cockroaches it takes to make a free burger. Only one.

Eating bugs. Not just for your little brother anymore. As for people telling me what to eat and not eat, I just pop the nice, juicy bite of medium rare steak in my mouth with the one hand, and give them a portion of uncooked bird with the other.

As for the other, when they can get it to taste like a Quarter Punder with Cheese I will start paying attention. :) |
