It's wild to me to see such an anti-insect eating tirade on HN. Just observe the comments here: almost every highly upvoted comment is anti-insect, and the comments that express any positive sentiment towards eating insect is flooded with angry responses. Bizarre.

The linked article sounds scientific, but the same author wrote this: "they" are trying to poison "us" rant.
- cnity 4y agoIt seems that if anybody is trying to change anyone else's eating habits, it's the anti-bug folk in here.
- weberer 4y agoThe parent commenter is spreading misinformation. The authors are not the same. They don't even have similar names.
- ergl 4y ago"the same author wrote this" That's not true though, the link you posted is authored by a completely different person.

- prometheus76 4y agoDon't you want to "follow the science"? Science says insects are a major vector for parasitic disease in humans. So should we ignore the science now because other science?
- cnity 4y agoI don't think I said anything of the sort.
- weberer 4y agoIt's bizarre to realize that most people don't want to eat bugs? How many people do you see eating bugs on an average day for this to be a shock to you?
- cnity 4y agoNo, it's bizarre how many commenters in here are trying to stop _me_ from eating bugs (via a social disgust reaction).
