I always wondered why people must eat really everything and anything, just because it fits the size of their throat.
The EU has already allowed quantities of insect "flour" being mixed into processed foods. It must not even necessarily be declared on the label. These a.h. want to enforce it onto you with or against your willingness. They really work all day long just to make you hate them without inhibitions or bad conscience.
I think its also a part of the general display of decadence in our falling civilization. The Roman cuisine never was famous and the toilets were usually right beside the kitchen a nd the smells and odors could nicely mix, due to the fact that cooking had such a low reputation in Roman civilization. At the end of its time historians describe that the eating and cooking habits in Rome further degenerated into an unappetizing mess. Not by need and food shortage - but decadence. As well as a rampant - last but not least: sexual - licentiousness that we see being displayed today, too.
Well. It was great while it lasted, but we are beyond "over" already.
