Should insect protein become the dietary norm of the future, how will our descendants feel about our reactions to the first insect aisle in the local supermarket? Could we perhaps be the last generation to be seen as true meat eaters?

No. Eating insects, spiders etc is utterly disgusting.

Yes its still disgusting. In reality, eating prawns and most shellfish in general is disgusting. If that thing lived on land we would not eat it. But it doesn’t and we’re used to it and it tastes really good, so we do it anyway.
I can’t eat them due to allergies. I’ve tried lobster and thought it was nothing to write home about. Luckily didn’t really react.

Clearly evolution has distinguished ’insects’ from ‘Aquatic Crustaceans’.

Yes I know. I was awkwardly separating them in my sentence knowing that some cultures (mistakenly) eat insects, and some (also mistakenly) eat spiders.
That is no excuse for either.
Maybe calling them Land Crustaceans might help sell them a bit more? How about shellveal or ground kippers?
Maybe “yummy cockroaches”?
I honestly can’t stomach the idea of eating insects, but I do love prawns! Looks like the two halves of my brain are sleeping in separate beds tonight.
I haven’t seen this movie sorry.
Pretty sure that’s from Snowpiercer
