While I can agree with the sentiment, I am having a problem with the need to do things like that. This desicration of the flag is NOT what we are about. How about leaving calling cards instead. He should have used a bigger flag.

Color values and shadowing are off on the flag. 'Shopped, and poorly at that.

Besides, we're killing light brown people this week, not dark brown.

At least Australia's ABC is honest (they do the live parliamentary reports)

And as fargon notes, it is desecration of the flag. Not patriotic, just sociopathic.

From a live journal image server like the one UT linked earlier:

Quote:

I’ve eaten veg-raised meal worms, crickets and ants. I’ve never had silkworm pupae before. This can must be FDA approved (that’s not saying much) or importing them would be impossible. There is a nutritional label on them, translated to English. 21 grams of protein "per serving." Lest you are not horrified enough, they come in a soy marinade so I’m sure they look wonderful in their canned juices.

I’m a fan of bug-eating and cultures that use insects as a food staple. I don't get to do it often due to inconvenience and people de-friending me because I ate a bug. Fact: I’ll eat pretty much anything if it’s prepared in the right way (See zoophagy on my interest list). Cultural norms are funny and so are the people who don't question them.

Entomophagy is the fine art of bug-eating. If it crawls, it’s a great source of protein and a renewable resource. It’s more economical to raise insects than cattle and usually cleaner. Edible bugs tend to eat vegetable matter themselves and they breed quickly. It’s really no different than eating lobster, shrimp and crab. In Asia it's more common than beef.

I will eat these eventually. For now, I'm going to enjoy the aesthetic of leaving the can on my counter next to the spoon rest which reads, "Many people have eaten my cooking and gone on to live normal lives."

At least the contents are pictured on the label.

How much shit have you bought in Asian Grocery stores with no idea of what you've purchased? Especially given cultural differences in advertising and labelling ... we put pictures of happy bumblebees on our tunafish cans.

If there's a picture of a cartoon worm or something on their cans, what's inside?

Don't forget my cautionary tale about octopus flavored snack crackers...

The survival skills teacher at school is really into bug eating and is frequently cooking some up. My daughter is a good sport and had chowed various black crawly things and white squiggly larvae.... the boy is horrified by it. Refused to take a survival class because he thought he'd be required to eat a bug. Personally, I don't blame him...

I would definitely try it. I'm an adventurous eater.
