Some people object to eating insects. Some object to eating meat.
Nearly nobody has an objection to eating legumes (I am ignoring, among other things, people on ultra-low-carb diets, specific allergies, and Ashkenazi Jews during Pesach), so an improved yield of legumes, or a reduction in water usage, or a tolerance for greater temperature extremes, or... would be extremely valuable.
- belorn 4y agoI would think there is plenty of people who objects to eating legumes based on culture and taste. Culture has always been the dominating factor in influencing people to eat different kind of food, and its fairly common for one country to have food that people from other countries wouldn't touch. As a person living in Sweden, we have candy that people from other countries find as torture to eat.
