The weird thing is the CBS News segment never discussed the reporter switching over, or the CBS News cafeteria serving bugs
“CBS Saturday Morning” featured a segment suggesting adding insects into a diet could provide benefits for a growing world affected by climate change.
To counter meat, soybean derived proteins or other high-carbon foods, the segment described efforts by climate experts and scientists to explore farming bugs to protect the planet.
“We all know how important insects are for the environment, but climate researchers say bugs could be a game changer in the fight to protect the planet in ways you may not have imagined,” host Dana Jacobson said.
Reporter Tina Kraus explained, “Adding some insects to the mix is customary in the kitchen in some parts of the world. Now climate experts think the protein-packed pests could offer a real solution to the global food crisis. Scientists in Germany are not pushing to get the critters your plate, they see another benefit.”
One scientist interviewed said their intention is not to force bugs onto menus but be used as an alternative for animal feed.
“To have a more sustainable production of proteins, we need this and I see insects as a perfect tool,” the scientist argued. “And you can make so many things out of insects, and to make the world better.”
Yeah, they’re totally not attempting to force this, just like they were not going to force people away from their gas powered stoves and fossil fueled vehicles.
However, this push to push people to eat bugs has met fierce opposition in the United States. In March, a Utah school teacher was caught on video insisting to her students that eating bugs is a necessity to help the environment.
“We don’t want to eat bugs and it’s gross. But should we be eating bugs? Yeah, because we’re killing the world by raising cows and animals. So we need to, not get rid of cows, but like, try to balance our diet so that not so much of our land is being used to raise cows, cause it’s killing the Ozone layer,” the teacher said. “All the evidence has suggested, that we probably should be eating bugs – it’s good for the environment, etc. But I didn’t know that that was an offensive topic to indicate.”
Here’s a great idea: mind your own f’ing business. If you want to eat bugs, go for it. Have it. You be you. Leave the rest of us alone.
Brings a whole new meaning to someone saying she has “butterflies in her stomach.”
Only in those parts of the world that are famous for famine, grinding poverty and malnutrition. We can do better than that. We can clone high tech meat cells in a lab. No animals needed, but all the wholesome beefy flavor you come to expect. Or, as Tina Kraus would put it, “adding some beef to the mix is customary in the kitchen in America”.
Americans have plenty of choices for buying cars. The passenger car that is most bought in the first quarter of 2023 was the Tesla Mod Y.
Americans must wait to buy one because they are so desired
They cost less than the average price of a new car
The most bought vehicle was the Ford F-150, by far. Johnny-if they’re so good, why the mandates and the subsidies?
But thanks for bringing cars while we’re in the bug section…
Keep buin those Teslas. Elon needs the money to squash leftist social media sites. As a carnival barker for billionaire car makers how much do you make? Obviously not enough to practice what you preach. But that’s usual for commies.
